Step-by-step:

Use slope formula to find the slope. (y - y)/(x - x)

Make sure the x and y in front of the minus is a pair that goes together, as well as the x and y behind the minus sign. So

8 - -4 goes on top, that's 12

0 - -1 goes under, thats 1

12/1 is the slope which is just 12. Use either point to fill in the second x and the second y in the point-slope equation. m is the slope.

y - y = m(x - x)

y - 8 = 12(x - 0)

y - 8 = 12x

Three friends decide to evenly split their bill at a restaurant. The total bill is $84.99 and they will have to pay an additiona

xz_007 [3.2K]

Given : The Total Bill at the Restaurant is $84.99

Given : The Additional Tax is $5.10

⇒ Total Bill Including the Tax is : (84.99 + 5.10) = $90.09

Given : Three Friends decide to evenly split their Bill

⇒ $90.09 should be Divided into 3 Equal Parts

$\mathsf{\implies The\;Amount\;each\;person\;should\;owe\;is = (\frac{90.09}{3})}$

$\mathsf{\implies The\;Amount\;each\;person\;should\;owe\;is = 30.03\;Dollars}$

Answer:

$x =\dfrac{20 +\sqrt{454}}{18}, \quad \dfrac{20 -\sqrt{454}}{18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions:

$p(x)=2x-4$

$r(x)=\dfrac{6x-1}{9x+1}$

Solve for p(x) = r(x):

$\begin{aligned}p(x) & = r(x)\\\implies 2x-4 & = \dfrac{6x-1}{9x+1}\\(2x-4)(9x+1)&=6x-1\\18x^2+2x-36x-4&=6x-1\\18x^2-40x-3&=0\end{aligned}$

As the found quadratic equation cannot be factored, use the Quadratic Formula to solve for x:

Quadratic Formula

$x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0$

Therefore:

$a=18, \quad b=-40, \quad c=-3$

Substitute the values of a, b and c into the quadratic formula and solve for x:

$\begin{aligned}\implies x & =\dfrac{-(-40) \pm \sqrt{(-40)^2-4(18)(-3)} }{2(18)}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{1816}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{4 \cdot 454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{4}\sqrt{454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm2\sqrt{454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{20 \pm\sqrt{454}}{18}\end{aligned}$

Therefore, the solutions are:

$x =\dfrac{20 +\sqrt{454}}{18}, \quad \dfrac{20 -\sqrt{454}}{18}$
