Answer:

y=6/5x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We want to find the equation of the line that passes through (5, -2) and has the slope of 6/5

We can write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Since we are already given the slope of the line, we can immediately plug it into the equation:

y=6/5x+b

Now we need to find b

Since the equation passes through the point (5, -2), we can use it to solve for b

Substitute 5 as x and -2 as y:

-2=6/5(5)+b

Multiply

-2=6+b

Subtract 6 from both sides

-8=b

Substitute -8 as b.

y=6/5x-8

Hope this helps!

Leyan bought 234 pounds of apples for $1.32 per pound, 112 pounds of peaches for $1.20 per pound, and some tomatoes, all from a
velikii [3]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question isn't well written and that 234 was meant to be 2.34 and 112 was meant to be 1.12

Let the amount spent on tomatoes be x.

The information given in the question can then be used to form an equation as thus:

Apples + Peaches + Tomatoes = $9.63

(2.34 × $1.32) + (1.12 × $1.20) + x = $9.63

$3.0888 + $1.344 + x = $9.63

x = $9.63 - ($3.0888 + $1.344)

x = $9.63 - $4.4328

x = $5.1972

The amount spent on tomatoes will be $5.1972

If someone is going 24.85 mi/h how far will they have gone in 4 hours?
Leokris [45]
You would have to do 24.85 x 4 because the 24.85 is per hour and if someone is going for 4 hours, this is what we would have to work out. So it would equal: 99.40 miles per hour. :)

A car dealership is having a sale in which customers pay 85% of the retail price for a new vehicle. keith is buying a vehicle wi
mash [69]
First, we calculated the discounted price which would have been paid by Keith. That is the product of 85% and $36,000.
                                      ($36,000) x (85%) = $30,600
Then, after negotiating to pay 9% off the sale price, he will only need to pay 91% of the sale price. The new price would be,
                              ($30600) x (0.91) = $27846
Thus, Keith will only need to pay $27,846.
