Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope intercept form

Mathematics

Naily [24]2 years ago

4 0

Answer: y = (1/4)x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is $y = mx + b$ . The $y$ -intercept is -1 so we have $y = mx - 1$ . To find $m$ , look at the points $(0, -1)$ and $(4, 0)$ . The line goes up 1 and over 4, so the slope, $m$ , equals $1/4$ . Thus the full equation is

$$y = (1/4)x - 1$ .

HELP WITH THESE 3 QUESTIONS (BRIANLIEST AND 50 POINTS) hint: question 1 is answered (NO LINKS)

Rasek [7]

Answer:

45 points in round 3

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 30 + 25 = 100

combine like terms

30+25 = 55

x + 55 = 100

- 55 - 55

--------------------

x = 45

therefore, Amos scored 45 points in round 3

hope this helps! :D

have a MIRACULOUS day, and brainliest is immensely appreciated!! <3

A parallelogram has a length of 6 centimeters and a width of 4.5 centimeters. This parallelogram is dilated by a scale factor of

Arada [10]

Scale factor is given by:
(length of larger figure)/(length of smaller figure)=(width of larger figure)/(width of the smaller figure)=3.4
The length of the larger figure will be given by:
length=(scale factor)*(length of smaller figure)
=3.4*6=20.4 cm
width of the larger figure will be given by:
width=(scale factor)*(width of smaller figure)
=3.4*4.5
=15.3 cm
Therefore the dimension of the new parallelogram will be 20.4 cm by 15.3 cm

You are creating bracelets and then selling them to your friends at a 85% markup rate. If it costs you $1.80 to create the brace

posledela

Answer:

you will add $1.53 to every bracelet you make

Step-by-step explanation:

figure out what 85 percent of 1.80 is and then add that to 1.80 for the total price

85% x 1.8 = 1.53 (markup ammount)

1.80 + 1.53 = 3.33 (total cost)

(a) Derive an equation of the line passing through the points A(0, 545) and B(4, 726). (Let t be the independent variable and y

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The equation of the line is $y=45.25t+545$

Step-by-step explanation:

The general for of a line is:

$y=mt+n$ (1)

where:

$m$ is the slope of the line and $m$ is the intercept with the axis of the dependent variable, $y$ in this case.

In order to obtain the value of the slope ( $m$ ) we can use the corresponding slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_1 }{t_2-t_1}$ (2)

where $t_1, t_2, y_1$ and $y_2$ are the corresponding coordinates of the given points. In this case:

$t_1=0\\t_2=4\\y_1=545\\y_2=726\\$

Substituting these values in equation (2) we obtain:

$m=\frac{726-545}{4-0}=\frac{181}{4}=45.25\\m=45.25$

Hence, the line equation is now:

$y=45.25t+n$ (3)

Now to obtain the value of $n$ you can follow two options:

You can substitute one of your points, $A$ or $B$ , in equation (3). In this way, you will obtain an equation where the variable is $n$

Note that for this question, it is easier to select point A because of having the independent variable equals to zero $t=0$ . Hence, substituting point A in equation (3):

$45.25*0+n=545\\n=545$

Therefore, the line equation is: $y=45.25t+545$

The second option to find $n$ is to think of the meaning of the <em>intercept</em>. The <em>intercept </em>of a line is defined as the point in which the line crosses the axis of the dependent variable, which also means that the value of the independent variable for this point is zero. From this, we could have automatically said that $n$ is equal to $545$ .

See the attachment for a plot of the line.
