The slope of a line is given by the ratio of the rise to the run of the line.

The value of, y is <u>4</u>

Reasons:

The given points on the line are; (-4, y), and (5, 7)

The slope of the line, = \dfrac{1}{3}

Required:

To find the value of <em>y</em>

<em />

Solution:

The formula for the slope is given as follows;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Where;

(x₁, y₁) = (-4, y)

(x₂, y₂) = (5, 7)

Which gives;

Slope, \, m =\dfrac{7-y}{5-(-4)} = \dfrac{7-y}{5+4} =\dfrac{1}{3}

3·(7 - y) = 1·(5 + 4) = 9

21 - 3·y = 9

3·y = 21 - 9 = 12

y = \dfrac{12}{3} = 4

The value of, y = <u>4</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write equations with the information given:

  • <em>John has × marbles  </em>

John=x

  • <em>Max has twice (multiplied by 2) as many.max give gives john 5 of his marbles. </em>

We have to multiply by 2 the number of marbles that John has (x), and subtract 5.  

Max = 2x -5

tester [92]

Answer:

En el curso anterior había 430 alumnos.

Step-by-step explanation:

El curso tiene 473 alumnos. Nos dicen que respecto al curso anterior se ha producido un aumento de inscripciones del 10 %. Entonces, siendo x la cantidad de alumnos que había en el curso anterior, se puede plantear la ecuación:

x + 0.1*x= 473

Resolviendo se obtiene:

1.1*x=473

x= 473 ÷1.1

x= 430

<u><em>En el curso anterior había 430 alumnos.</em></u>
