Find an equation of the line that goes through the points (10,34) and (-1,10)

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Given points are ( 10 ,34 ) and ( -1 , 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>The </em><em>equation</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>line </em><em>is </em><em>given </em><em>by </em>

<em>first </em><em>we </em><em>can </em><em>find </em><em>slope </em><em>(</em><em>m</em><em>) </em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>y2 </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y</em><em>1</em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x2</em><em> </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x1</em><em>)</em>

<em>=</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>4</em><em>-</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>/</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em>+</em><em>1</em>

<em> </em><em>=</em><em>2</em><em>4</em><em>/</em><em>1</em><em>1</em>

<em>Now </em><em>the </em><em>equation </em><em>is</em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>y1 </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>m </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>x1) </em>

<em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>4</em><em>/</em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>x </em><em>+</em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>)</em>

<em>11 </em><em>(</em><em> </em><em>y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>)</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>)</em>

<em>11y </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>1</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>24x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>6</em><em>4</em>

<em>24x </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>6</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>+</em><em>110-11y </em><em>=</em><em>0</em>

<em>24x </em><em>-</em><em> </em><em>11y </em><em>+</em><em> </em><em>3</em><em>7</em><em>4</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>0</em>

<em>which </em><em>is </em><em>the </em><em>required </em><em>equation </em>

Levart [38]

Answer:

you need 6 cups of raisins, 4 cups of granola and 8 cups of blueberries.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Find how much raisins are needed</u>

<em>For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 1.5 cups of raisins</em>

<em>For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of raisins</em>

4.5 : 1.5

18 : y

<em>Cross multiply</em>

4.5y = 1.5 x 18

y = 27/4.5

y = 6 cups of raisins

<u>Step 2: Find how much granola is needed</u>

<em>For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 1 cup of granola</em>

<em>For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of granola</em>

4.5 : 1

18 : y

<em>Cross multiply</em>

4.5y = 18

y = 4 cups of granola

<u>Step 3: Find how much blueberries are needed</u>

<em>For 4.5 cups of fruity granola, we need 2 cups of raisins</em>

<em>For 18 cups of fruity granola, we need y cups of blueberries</em>

4.5 : 2

18 : y

<em>Cross multiply</em>

4.5y = 2 x 18

y = 36/4.5

y = 8 cups of blueberries

Therefore, in order to make 18 cups of fruity granola, you need 6 cups of raisins, 4 cups of granola and 8 cups of blueberries.
