Answer:

$y=25x$

Step-by-step explanation:

If Bella types 50 words in 2 minutes, we can divide 50 by 2 to see how many words she types in 1 minute.

$50/2=25$

So, Bella types 25 words per minute. When she first began writing her essay, she did not have words to start with, so there is no y-intercept ( $b$ ).

Therefore, the equation that represents this relation is $y=25x$ .

Solving the equation

We can divide 400 by 25 to determine how many minutes it would take her to finish her essay.

$\frac{400}{25} =16$

Therefore, it will take her 16 minutes to complete her essay.

Write an equation in point slope form for the line that passes through (-5,6) and (-3,-9).

Finger [1]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad
(\stackrel{x_2}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-9})
\\\\\\
slope = m\implies
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-9-6}{-3-(-5)}\implies \cfrac{-9-6}{-3+5}\implies -\cfrac{15}{2}$

$\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll}
\cline{1-1}
\textit{point-slope form}\\
\cline{1-1}
\\
y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
\\\\
\cline{1-1}
\end{array}\implies y-6=-\cfrac{15}{2}[x-(-5)]\implies y-6=-\cfrac{15}{2}(x+5)
\\\\\\
y-6=-\cfrac{15}{2}x-\cfrac{75}{2}\implies y=-\cfrac{15}{2}x-\cfrac{75}{2}-6\implies y=-\cfrac{15}{2}x-\cfrac{87}{2}$

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

option A

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

the bank branch is offering $1,000 certificates of deposit.

Rate of interest per year = 4 % = 0.04

The bank is selling certificates with terms of 1, 2, 3, or 4 years

total amount = A , in dollar

time of investment = k years

4 k% is added to the original deposit.

A = P + P r t

A = P (1 + r t)

A = P (1 + 0.04 k)

the correct answer is option A
