Answer:

y+4 = 9/4(x-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

m=slope and b=y-intercept (probably useful for later on in the school years)

y-y1 = m(x-x1) where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point

Substituting in what we know

y--4 = 9/4(x-3)

y+4 = 9/4(x-3)

Answer:

We can’t write it in point slope form because we need 2 points for that. But we can write it in slope intercept form which id y-mx+b. so the equation would be -4=9/4(3)+b

(1 point) There were 23.7 million licensed drivers in California in 2009 and 22.76 million in 2004. Find a formula for the numbe

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of licensed drivers in 2004 = 22.76 million

Number of licensed drivers in 2009 = 23.7 million

Number of licensed drivers, N as a function of t since year 2004 ;

General form of a linear function :

y = mx + c

c = intercept ; m = slope

Intercept c = value of y ; when x = 0

Here, population after uerssmmx,

Hence,

In 2004 ;

22.76 = mx + c

x = 0

22.76 = c

Number in 2009

x = number of yesrs after 2004 ; x = 2000 - 2004 = 5years

We can find the slope :

y = m*5 + 22.76

y = 23.7 in 2009

23.7 = 5m + 22.76

23.7 - 22.76 = 5m

m = 0.94 / 5

m = 0.188

Hence, the linear function can be written as :

N(t) = 0.188t + 22.76

How far apart in feet are Marcus and Joel. Please round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot

Pavel [41]

Answer:

The distance between Marcus and Joel is approximately 127.3 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distances between Jean to Joel, Jean to Marcus and Marcus to Joel form a right triangle where the distance from Marcus to Joel is the hypothenuse. We can measure the distance from Jean to Marcus and Jean to Joel by using the grid provided, since they're along the same axis. This is shown below:

d(Jean, Marcus) = Jean(x) - Marcus(x) = 100 - 10 = 90 feet

d(Jean, Joel) = Jean(y) - Joel(y) = 90 - 0 = 90 feet

We can apply the pythagora's theorem to find the distance between Marcus and Joel.

d(Marcus,Joel)² = d(Jean,Marcus)² + d(Jean,Joel)²

d(Marcus,Joel)² = (90)² + (90)²

d(Marcus,Joel)² = 2*(90)²

d(Marcus, Joel) = sqrt(2*(90)²) = 90*sqrt(2) = 127.279 feet

The distance between Marcus and Joel is approximately 127.3 feet.

At Clement's Jr. High School, a student needs an 86 average to earn a B. Sue's average on

andriy [413]

Answer:

Sue must score 94 on the final test to earn a B.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are five tests in total.

Sue's average on the first four tests is 84.

If after the final test, she scores X, she will have a B on average of five tests.

We have the following equation:

86 = (4 × 84 + X)/5

<=> X = 5 × 86 - 4 × 84

=> X = 94
