The line passing through the points (-2,5) and (1,8)

Mathematics
1 answer:
ycow [4]2 years ago

Answer:

<u>y = x + 7</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope of a line that passes through (-2,5) and (1,8).  The slope is the Rise/Run between the 2 points:

Rise = (8 - 5) or 3.

Run = (1-(-2)) = 3

Rise/Run, the slope m, is 3/3 or 1.

The equation can be written as y = 1x + b.

We need to find a value of b that forces the line though both points.  Do that by entering one of the two points into y = 1x + b and solve for b.  I'll use point (1,8)

y = x + b

8 = 1 + b

b = 7

The equation becomes <u>y = x + 7</u>

Rename 4/7 as a percent. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent if necessary.
enyata [817]

Answer:

Part 1) Option C. 57.1%

Part 2) Option B. 70.9%

Part 3) Option C. 66 2/3 %

Part 4) Option A. About 16

Part 5) Option A. About $12

Part 6) Option B. About $9

Part 7) Option B. x/50=70/100

Part 8) Option B. 25%

Part 9) Option D. 800

Part 10) $1,770

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Rename 4/7 as a percent

we know that

To rename a number as a percent, multiply the number by 100

so

(4/7)*100=400/7=57.1%

Part 2) Rename .709 as a percent

we know that

To rename a number as a percent, multiply the number by 100

so

0.709*100=70.9%

Part 3) If 1/3 is equivalent to 33 1/3% what percent is equivalent to 2/3?

we know that

33 1/3%=(33*3+1)/3 %=100/3 %

By proportion

(100/3 %)/(1/3)=x/(2/3)

x=200/3 %=66 2/3 %

Part 4) Alice plays basketball. In one game she shoots 21 free throws and makes 81.25% of them. Estimate how many she makes

To find the exact value multiply the total shoots by the percentage

21*(81.25/100)=17.06

so

<em>To find the estimate value</em>

21 shoots is about 20

81.25% is about 80%

so

20*(80/100)=16

the answer is about 16

Part 5) Estimate 48% of 23.95

To find the exact value multiply the number by the percentage

23.95*(48/100)=11.50

<em>To find the estimate value</em>

23.95 is about 24

48% is about 50%

so

24*(50/100)=12

Part 6) The bill at a restraint is $58.50 and Mrs. Johnson wants to leave a 15% tip. Approximately how much money

To find the exact value multiply the bill by the percentage

so

$58.50*(15/100)=$8.78

<em>To find the approximate value</em>

$58.50 is about $60

$60*(15/100)=$9

Part 7) Which proportion can be used to solve the following percent problem? What is 50% if 100% is 70?

using proportion

x/50=70/100

x=70*50/100

x=35

Part 8) What percent of 50 is 12.5?

using proportion

50/100%=12.5/x%

x=100*12.5/50

x=25%

Part 9) 50 Is 6.25% of what number?

using proportion

50/6.25%=x/100%

x=100*50/6.25

x=800

Part 10) Chris works at Higgins’ Automart and is selling a new Shelby Mustang for $59,000. If he earns a commission of 3%, how much money does he earn?

we know that

$59,000 ------> represent the 100%

using proportion

Find how much money represent 3% of the commission

59,000/100%=x/3%

so

X=$59,000*(3/100)=$1,770

2. Given: mZABD = rº and mZACB = yo
Ede4ka [16]

Step-by-step explanation:

the angle ABC = 180 - x, as ABD and ABC are complementary angles on top of the bottom line : all angles around a point on one side of a line are always adding up to 180 degrees.

but because we also know that the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180 degrees too, we can say

180 = ACB + ABC + CAB

180 = y + 180 - x + CAB

0 = y - x + CAB

x = y + CAB

x - y = CAB

therefore, the second answer option is correct.

Write the equation of an ellipse with a major axis of length 8 and co-vertices (0,3) and (0,-3)
alexandr1967 [171]
If the co-vertices are (0, 3) and (0, -3) where x is 0 and y has a value, then y is the minor axis.  That means that the x axis is the major axis.  Because of what the co-vertices are, the center of the ellipse is at the origin.  The formula for an ellipse that has a horizontal major axis is \frac{(x-h)^2}{a^2}+ \frac{(y-k)^2}{b^2}=1.  The a value will always be larger than the b value, therefore, the a value goes under the coordinate that is the major axis.  Here, its the x-axis.  a is the distance that the outer edge of the ellipse is from the center.  It's 8 units away from the center along the x axis and 3 units along the y axis from the center.  So a = 8 and a^2 = 64; b = 3 and b^2 = 9.  Our formula then is \frac{x^2}{64}+ \frac{y^2}{9}=1
