viktelen [127]

Answer:

$y=11,600x+6,000$

Yearly sales in 1990: $98,800.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the sales of a certain appliance dealer can be approximated by a straight line. Sales were $6000 in 1982 and $ 64,000 in 1987.

If at 1982, $x=0$ then at 1987 x will be 5.

Now, we have two points (0,6000) and (5,64000).

$\text{Slope}=\frac{64,000-6,000}{5-0}$

$\text{Slope}=\frac{58,000}{5}$

$\text{Slope}=11,600$

Now, we will represent this information in slope-intercept form of equation.

$y=mx+b$ , where,

m = Slope,

b = Initial value or y-intercept.

We have been given that at $x=0$ , the value of y is 6,000, so it will be y-intercept.

Substitute values:

$y=11,600x+6,000$

Therefore, the equation $S=11,600x+6,000$ represents yearly sales.

Now, we will find difference between 1990 and 1982.

$1990-1982=8$

To find yearly sales in 1990, we will substitute $x=8$ in the equation.

$S=11,600(8)+6,000$

$S=92,800+6,000$

$S=98,800$

Therefore, the yearly sales in 1990 would be $98,800.

Introduction to addition or subtraction of fractions with different denominator 3/4-1/8

snow_lady [41]

The denominator must be the same, so just think of the LEAST COMMON MULTIPLE, The LCM here is 8, because you can multiply 4 by 2 to get 8.
so when you multiply, you multiply both on the top and on the bottom, so this would be:
3 x 2 / 4 x 2 = 6 / 8
Now you can add or subtract: 6/8 - 1/8 = 5/8

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (3,6) and has a slope of -1/3

Mnenie [13.5K]

$\Large\texttt{Answer\::}$

Please consult the "Calculations" section of this ans .

$\Large\texttt{Calculations\::}$

The information we're given is below :

slope : -1/3
Point crossed by the line : (3, 6)

As per given information , we can do the following :

Write the line's equation in point slope form

Point - slope form looks like so :

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

y-6=-1/3(x-3)

y-6=-1/3x+1

y=-1/3x+1+7

y=-1/3x+6

Each of the line segments in the word MATH are numbered in the graph below. Find the slope (as a ratio of rise over run) of each

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

7. Line 1 = undefined.

Slope of a vertical line is always undefined. The run is zero as x-coordinate remains the same.

8. Line 2 = $\frac{4}{3}$

$slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$slope = \frac{8 - 4}{-5 -(-8)}$

$slope = \frac{8 - 4}{-5 + 8}$

$slope = \frac{4}{3}$

9. Line 3 = $\frac{4}{3}$

$slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$slope = \frac{8 - 4}{-2 -(-5)}$

$slope = \frac{8 - 4}{-2 + 5}$

$slope = \frac{4}{3}$

10. Line 4 = undefined (slope of a vertical line is always undefined)

11. Line 5 = $\frac{7}{3}$

$slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$slope = \frac{8 - 1}{5 - 2}$

$slope = \frac{7}{3}$

12. Line 6 = $-\frac{7}{3}$

$slope = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$slope = \frac{8 - 1}{5 - 8}$

$slope = \frac{7}{-3}$

$slope = -\frac{7}{3}$

13. Line 7 = 0

An horizontal line has no rise.

14. Line 8 = 0 (slope of horizontal line is always zero)

15. Line 9 = undefined (slope of a vertical line is always undefined)

16. Line 10 = undefined (slope of a vertical line is always undefined)

17. Line 11 = 0 (slope of horizontal line is always zero)

18. Line 12 = undefined (slope of a vertical line is always undefined)
