The equation of the line that contains (−6, 19) and (−15, 28), in standard form, is: x + y = 13

<em><u>Recall:</u></em>

  • Equation of a line can be written in standard from as Ax + By = C, where Ax and By are all terms of variable x and y, and C is a constant.
  • The equation of a line in point-slope, y - y_1 = m(x - x_1), can be rewritten in the standard form.
  • Slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Given: (−6, 19) and (−15, 28)

<em>Find the </em><em>slope </em><em>(m):</em>

<em />m = \frac{28 - 19}{-15 -(-6)} = \frac{9}{-9} = -1

Write the equation in point-slope form by substituting m = -1 and (x_1, y_1) = (-6, 19) into y - y_1 = m(x - x_1).

y - 19 = -1(x - (-6))\\\\y - 19 = -1(x + 6)

  • Rewrite in standard form

y - 19 = -1(x + 6)\\\\y - 19 = -x - 6\\\\y = -x - 6 + 19\\\\y = -x + 13\\\\\mathbf{x + y = 13}

Therefore, the equation of the line that contains (−6, 19) and (−15, 28), in standard form, is: x + y = 13

The sum of three consecutive numbers is 537. What is the 3rd number?
maks197457 [2]

For this problem your equation will be x+(x+1)+(x+2)=537

Multiply and Simplify:

x+x+1+x+2=537

3x+3=537

Subtract 3 from both sides:

3x+3-3=537-3

3x=534

Divide both sides by 3:

3x/3=537/3

x=179

179 is the middle number so: 178+179+180=537

180 is the third number.

Which of these percentages is closest in value to
lana [24]
\frac{7}{9} = 0.777777777777777...

To get a percentage, you need to first round the decimal to the hundreths place. Whenever you have a number greater than 5, you round up.
Therefore, you can round it to 0.78.
Now to get the percentage you multiply it by 100.

0.78*100 = 78

This shows your answer is (c) 78%.

How many more ways can 10 juniors running for the positions of president, vice president, secretary, treasurer be selected when
zubka84 [21]
10 juniors are running for 4 positions. 
There are ten people who can get into the first spot
Nine people for the second
8 people for the third
7 for the fourth
10x9x8x7= 5040 different ways. 

For the sophomores: 12x11x10x9x8= 95040
However, the positions are identical which means that the order doesn't matter. (There's a difference between A getting postion 1, B for 2, C for 3, D for 4 and B for 1, A for 2, C for 3, D for 4)

There are 5 identical positions, therefore we divide this by 5! (5x4x3x2x1)= 120
95040/120= 792
Juniors have 5040 positions, sophomores have 792
