The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as
y = mx + c
where
m = slope
c = y intercept
Considering the given line,
m = - 3 and c = - 1
By substituting these values into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line is
y = - 3x - 1
We would substitute values of x into the equation and solve for corresponding values of y. It is shown below
For x = - 2, y = - 3 * - 2 - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5
For x = - 1, y = - 3 * - 1 - 1 = 3 - 1 = 2
For x = 0, y = - 3 * 0 - 1 = 0 - 1 = - 1
For x = 1, y = - 3 * 1 - 1 = - 3 - 1 = - 4
For x = 2, y = - 3 * 2 - 1 = - 6 - 1 = - 7
We would plot the corresponding x and y values on the horizontal and vertical axes of the graph respectively. The graph is shown below

1. An account is opened with a balance of $2800earning 4.25% simple interest. What will be thebalance in the account in 30 years?
Answer:
$6370
Explanation:
The simple interest formula gives us the final amount A given the principal amount P:
[tex]A=P(1+rt)[/tex]where r is the interest rate and t is the time interval.
Now in our case we have
P = 2800
r = 4.25/100
t = 30 years
therefore, the above formula gives
[tex]A=2800(1+\frac{4.25}{100}\cdot30)[/tex]which simplifies to give
[tex]\boxed{A=\$6370}[/tex]Hence, the account balance after 30 years will be $6370.
slove for y(13x-27)(9y + 19)(10x+6)
To obtain the value of y, we need to obtain the value of x first
Step 1: Finding x
(13x - 27) and (10x + 6) are equal (Alternate exterior angles)
so we can equate both angles
13x - 27 = 10x + 6
13x - 10x = 27 + 6
3x = 33
Divide both sides by 3
x = 33/ 3
x = 11
Step 2: Finding y
(9y + 19) and (10x + 6) are supplementary, hence they add up to 180
9y + 19 + 10x + 6 = 180
9y + 10x + 19 + 6 = 180
9y + 10x + 25 = 180
9y + 10x = 180 - 25
9y + 10x = 155
9y = 155 - 10x
substitute the value of x = 11 from step 1 into the equation
9y = 155 - 10 x 11
9y = 155 - 110
9y = 45
divide both sides by 9
y = 45/9
y = 5

a.) Random guesses are made for six multiple-choice questions.
b.) There are five choices for each question.
c.) There are n equals six trials each with the probability of success (correct) given by P equals 0.20.

Answer:
The speed of the boat is 9 miles/hour and the speed of the current is 3 miles/hour
Explanation:
Let's call x the speed of the boat and y the speed of the current.
The distance traveled is equal to the speed times the time, so the boat traveled 36 miles in three hours and we can write the following equation
(x + y)3 = 36
3(x + y) = 36
because when the boat traveled downstream, the total speed is the sum of x and y.
On the other hand, the boat traveled 30 miles upstream in 5 hours, so
(x - y)5 = 30
5(x - y) = 30
Therefore, the system of equations is
3(x + y) = 36
5(x - y) = 30
Solving the first equation for x, we get
[tex]\begin{gathered} 3(x+y)=36 \\ \\ \frac{3(x+y)}{3}=\frac{36}{3} \\ \\ x+y=12 \\ x+y-y=12-y \\ x=12-y \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, we can replace this expression on the second equation as follows
[tex]\begin{gathered} 5(x-y)=30 \\ \\ {\frac{5(x-y)}{5}}=\frac{30}{5} \\ \\ x-y=6 \\ \\ \text{ Replacing x = 12 - y} \\ 12-y-y=6 \\ 12-2y=6 \\ 12-2y-12=6-12 \\ -2y=-6 \\ \\ \frac{-2y}{-2}=\frac{-6}{-2} \\ \\ y=3 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then, the value of x is
x = 12 - y
x = 12 - 3
x = 9
So, the speed of the boat is 9 miles/hour and the speed of the current is 3 miles/hour
Marc se come un sándwich de huevo para el desayuno y una hamburguesa grande para el almuerzo todos los días.
El sándwich de huevo tiene 250 calorías. Si Marc come 5,250 calorías en el desayuno y almuerzo en toda la
semana en total, ¿cuántas calorías tiene una hamburguesa grande?
lón de juegos la primera vez ella ganó 60 boletos. La segunda vez,
Answer:Hay 500 calorías en una Big Burger.
Step-by-step explanation:
En una semana (7 días), Mark come 7 sándwiches de huevo, que son 1750 calorías. Reste la cantidad total de calorías que consumió por la cantidad de calorías consumidas a través de sándwiches de huevo; 5250-1750=3500. 3500 es el número total de calorías que Mark consumió al comer una Big Burger todos los días durante 7 días. Divide 3500 entre 7 = 500. Hay 500 calorías en una Big Burger.
Solve each systems of the equations by elimination. 1* x-y=-13 x+y=-52* 2x-9y=17 2x+3y=-19
Let us solve the given system of equations by using the elimination method.
Question 1:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x-y=-13\quad eq.1 \\ x+y=-5\quad eq.2 \end{gathered}[/tex]Add these two equations so that the y variable cancels out
So, the value of x can be found now
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2x=-18 \\ x=-\frac{18}{2} \\ x=-9 \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute the value x into any of the two equations to find the value of y.
[tex]\begin{gathered} x-y=-13 \\ -9-y=-13 \\ y=-9+13 \\ y=4 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the solution of this system is x = -9 and y = 4
ANSI’s bought 3 1/2 yards of ribbon she had 2 feet 10 inches of ribbon left after trimming some curtains how many inches did she used to trim the curtains
With the help of conversion units, we know that 56 inches of ribbon was used in the curtains.
What is a conversion unit?If you want to change the units of a measured quantity without changing the value, you can do so by using a conversion factor, which is an expression representing the relationship between the units. A conversion ratio (or unit factor), if the numerator and denominator have the same value represented in various units, always equals one (1).So, inches of ribbon Ansi used in curtains:
1 yard = 36 inches
Now,
3½6+1/25/22.5Now, 2.5 yards in inches:
2.5 × 36 = 90 inchesNow, 1 foot = 12 inches.
Then, 2 feet and 10 inches:2 × 12 + 1024 + 1034 inchesInches of ribbon used:
90 - 34 = 56 inchesTherefore, with the help of conversion units, we know that 56 inches of ribbon was used in the curtains.

how do i find out if a table is a linear function? i know the formula i just dont know how to figure out if its linear, thanks!
Answer:
Table 3
Explanation:
A linear function has a constant slope.
To determine if the table represents a linear function, find the slope for two different pairs of points.
Table 1
Using the points (1,-2), (2,-6)
[tex]\text{Slope},m=\frac{Change\text{ in y-axis}}{Change\text{ in x-axis}}=\frac{-6-(-2)}{2-1}=-6+2=-4[/tex]Using the points (2,-6), (3,-2)
[tex]\text{Slope},m=\frac{Change\text{ in y-axis}}{Change\text{ in x-axis}}=\frac{-2-(-6)}{3-2}=-2+6=4[/tex]The slopes are not the same, thus, the function is not linear.
Table 3
Using the points (1,-2), (2,-10)
[tex]\text{Slope},m=\frac{Change\text{ in y-axis}}{Change\text{ in x-axis}}=\frac{-10-(-2)}{2-1}=-10+2=-8[/tex]Using the points (2,-10), (3,-18)
[tex]\text{Slope},m=\frac{Change\text{ in y-axis}}{Change\text{ in x-axis}}=\frac{-18-(-10)}{3-2}=-18+10=-8[/tex]The slopes are the same, thus, the function is linear.
Table 3 is the correct option.

The angles 4 and 8 are equal; therefore,
[tex]m\measuredangle8=m\measuredangle4[/tex][tex]3x+20=x+80[/tex]Subtracting x from both sides gives
[tex]2x+20=80[/tex]Subtracting 20 from both sides gives
