Answer:

y = -6x + 7 has greater rate of change

Step-by-step explanation:

for the first one, the rate of change is -6x and for the second one, the rate of change is -5x so the rate of change for y = -6x + 7 is greater.

Use the formula y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 to find the slop for the second equation. the second equation is y = -5x

Which choices are equations for the coordinates (-2,4) (1,-2)?

DENIUS [597]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{4})\qquad
(\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-2})
\\\\\\
slope = m\implies
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-2-4}{1-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{-2-4}{1+2}\implies \cfrac{-6}{3}\implies -2
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-4=-2[x-(-2)]\implies y-4=-2(x+2)$

Mr. Gardener invested $500,000. His annual interest was $40,000. What was the annual interest rate?

Mademuasel [1]

Answer: The annual interest rate r= 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The invested amount = $500,000.

The annual interest = $40,000

The annual interest rate is given by :-

$r=\frac{\text{interest}}{\text{invested amount}}\times100\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=\frac{40,000}{500,000}\times100\\\Rightarrow\ r=\frac{4}{50}\times100\\\\\Rightarrow\ r=8\%$

Hence, the annual interest rate r= 8%

Crazy boy [7]

The difference between a fixed rate and an adjustable rate mortgage is that,for fixed rates the interest rate is set when you take out the loan and will not change. With an adjustable rate mortgage, the interest rate may go up or down. Some arms also limit how low your interest rate can go.

If triangle ABC is similar to triangle PQR, find the value of x and y.

tester [92]

Answer:

x = 9

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔABC ~ ΔPQR

Therefore, corresponding sides of these similar triangles will be in the proportional.

$\frac{AB}{PQ}=\frac{BC}{QR}= \frac{AC}{PR}$
