Answer:

y+1=-5/7(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(4-(-1))/(-3-4)

m=(4+1)/-7

m=5/-7

m=-5/7

y-(-1)=-5/7(x-4)

y+1=-5/7(x-4)

how do you find a percentage of a number. Provide an example. Well not a specific number put jow do i find it ?

ollegr [7]

To find a percentage, if I am ready your question correctly, would be as simple as dividing the number by 100. For example, finding the percentage of 73.

73/100 = .73%

You could also just move the decimal place over two spots to the left.

What is the value of y for the line that has a slope of 1 and goes through the points (-4, y) and (-2, 8)?

Pavel [41]

Answer:

y = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line, calculate the slope between points (-4,y) and (-2,8). Substitute m = 1 and solve for y.

$m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\ 1 = \frac{y-8}{-4--2}\\\\ 1 =\frac{y-8}{-2}\\\\-2=y-8\\\\6=y$

xxMikexx [17]

Add the 3 ratio portions together: 1 + 4 + 7 = 12

Divide total length by 12:

84/12 = 7

Multiply each ratio portion by 7:

1 x 7 = 7

4 x 7 = 28

7 x 7 = 49

The longest piece is 49 cm
