3.7 estimates 4. 5.1 estimate to 5  so 4*5 =20.

If you estimated 3.7 to 4 and 5.1 to 5 the answer would be 20. You would have 20 and now you can think is 20 a reasonable answer for 3.7x5.1. The answer for 3.7x5.1=18.87, so the answer is yes.

Hope that helped:)

Write the equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to the line y = –4x and passes through the point (2,
Gnesinka [82]

1. If the line that we are searching for is perpendicular to the line y = -4x, this means that the gradient of our line and the gradient of the perpendicular line will multiply to give -1. Thus if we call the gradient of our line m, then:

m*(-4) = -1

-4m = -1

m = 1/4

2. Since we know that m = 1/4 and we have a point (2,6) on our line, we can use the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1) to find the equation of our line, where (x1, y1) is the coordinates of a point on the line. Thus:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = (1/4)(x - 2)

y - 6 = (1/4)x - 2/4 (Expand (1/4)(x - 2))

y = (1/4)x - 1/2 + 6 (Simplify 2/4 and add 6 to each side)

y = (1/4)x + 11/2 (Evaluate -1/2 + 6)

Slope-intercept form is given by y = mx + c. As our equation is already in this form, there is nothing more to do. Thus, the answer is y = (1/4)x + 11/2

The graph of a line passes through the points (0, -2) and (6, 0). What is the equation of the line?
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope, m = (6-0) /(0--2) = 6/2 = 3

intercept, c at y = -2 when x = 0

Equation

y = mx + c

y = 3x -2

What is the equation of the line perpendicular to y=2/3x+1 that passes through the point (12, –6)?
ser-zykov [4K]
The answer is A. Get y by itself. Y=-3/2x+ 12
Then place 12 in for x and -6 for y
