Answer:

[tex]1. \;\;y = \dfrac{1}{3}x - 1\\\\2.\;\;y = -\dfrac{2}{5}x\\\\3.\;\;y = x + 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form equation is y = mx + b

where m = slope and b = y-intercept

So for each case, substitute for slope(m) and y-intercept(b)

Answer:

1.  y = 1/3x + (-1)

2. y = -2/5x

3. y = 1x + 8 = 1x + 8 or  y = x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First of all, we need to know the slope-intercept form. The formula is y = mx + b. M represent the slope and b represents the y-intercept. So the question asked for the slope-intercept form for the slope that is 1/3 and the interception of -1. So we need figure out how to write it. It asked for -1/3 and -1 and we use the formal y = mx + b and it'll help us on figuring out how to write it. So far we have y = 1/3x + b, b is the intercept. The intercept would be -1. So the way we'd right it out is y = 1/3x + (-1). But first you have to multiply the + with -1. When we would multiply the signs you do it like this: (+) (+) = + and (-) multiplied by (-) is +. As well as (-) multiplied by (+) is -.

So for 1 the slope would be 1/3 and the (0, -1) . But we have to write it in the given form: y = mx + b ... m = slope, b = y intercept. So the way we'd right it is y = mx + b and m = slope, b = y intercept. Therefore the answer for this one is y = 1/3x - 1.

2. First we should know that we have the slope of -2/5 and the y-intercept is 0. The right form for this is y = -2/5x +. So for this one we got y = -2/5x because we said that the first one is 1/3 and -1. As well as the second is -2/5 and 0. The third is 1 and 8 as we wrote it earlier. So that's how we got our answer y = -2/5x for this question. Therefore our answer to this question is y = -2/5x.

3. For this one we first know slope = 1 and intercept =8. This equation is easier than both number 1 and 2 all we need to do is just put every given number in the right place. So we'll need to write the y as it is then add the = sign. Then write the slope which is given above. Then we have to write the x. We'll need to add the + sign and write the intercept given above next to it. After doing these steps you we'd have the answer because this is the general formula. So we would write 1 instead of m and the intercept is 8 so you need to write it instead of b. Therefore our answer would be y = 1x + 8 = 1x + 8 or another way we could write it is  y = x + 8 either way would be correct.

I hope this helps, have a blessed day! :)

Answer:

  $2367

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know how to figure the 12% tax due on the amount that falls in the bracket $9876 to 29600.

Tax tables are often written in a somewhat misleading way. This one seems to tell you

  0 to 9875 . . . . 10% tax rate

  9876 to 29600 (and up to 40,125) . . . . 12% tax rate

What this means is that every dollar between (and including) the 9876th dollar and the 29600th dollar will have a $0.12 tax applied. It is figured by subtracting 9875 from the amount that falls in this bracket, and multiplying that difference by 12%.

  (29600 - 9875) × 12%

  = 19725 × 0.12

  = 2367 . . . . . . . . tax due on the amount in the 9876 to 29600 bracket

If your taxable amount is $29,600, the total tax due is ...

  (amount in first bracket) × 10% + (amount in second bracket) × 12%

  = 9875 × 0.10 + (29600 -9875) × 0.12

  = 987.50 +2367.00

  = $3,354.50 . . . . . . . . . . . total due on $29,600

__

Additional comment

It can be easier to write a new tax table that simplifies the computation. For taxable amounts up to $40,125, this table can be simplified to ...

Using this last entry for $29,600, we find the total tax due to be ...

  $29,600 × 0.12 - 197.50

  = $3,552.00 -197.50

  = $3,354.50 . . . . . . . same as above.

The amount $197.50 is (12% -10%)×9875.

Along the same lines, the rest of the tax table can be simplified to ...

It turns out that the tax due is the maximum of the values computed using these equations. (You don't actually have to know what bracket applies to your income. Knowing the bracket does simplify the process by choosing the applicable formula.)

Note that this is a tax table for 2020. The rates for 2021 are different.

Answer:

Aisha is ten years old and Mpho is seven

The age of Aisha is 10 years old and the age of Mpho is 7 years old.

The allocation of weights to the important variables that produce the calculation's optimum is referred to as a direct consequence.

Aisha is three years older than Mpho. Together their ages add up to 17 years.

Let x be the age of Aisha and y be the age of Mpho. Then the equations are given as,

x = y + 3               ...1

x + y = 17             ...2

From equations 1 and 2, then we have

y + 3 + y = 17

2y = 14

y = 7

Then the value of 'x' is given as,

x = 7 + 3

x = 10

The expected foot length of an adult male who is 1.8 m tall is 30.8 cm.

Based on the information given, Jerry surveyed adult males to study the relationship between their high and the length of their footwear both are measured in centimeters and he found the equation y equals 75 + 3.4 x.

This will be illustrated as:

y = 75 + 3.4x..

y = 1.8m = 180

Therefore, y = 75 + 3.4x.

180= 75 + 3.4x

180 = 75 + 3.4x

Collect like terms

3.4x = 180 - 75

3.4x = 105.

Divide

x = 105 / 3.4

x = 30.8 cm

Therefore, the expected foot length of an adult male who is 1.8 m tall is 30.8 cm.

The length of a rectangle is 2x+6 and the width is x. Write two expressions to represent the perimeter.

The length of the rectangular wall of a barn is 7 and the width is 17 feet

Area of the rectangular wall of a barn = 119 square feet

Length of the wall of the barn = width of barn + 10 feet

Let the width of the wall of the barn be x feet

So, the length of the wall of the barn will be x + 10 feet

The area of the rectangular wall of the barn is given by:

Area of the rectangular wall of the barn = Length of the barn * Width of the barn

119 = x*(x+10)

119 = x^2 +10x

0 = x^2 +10x - 119

Using splitting the middle term method

0 = x^2 + 17x - 7x - 119

0 = x(x + 17) - 7(x + 17)

x = 17 or 7.

Since the width is 10 feet more than the length

Therefore, the length of the rectangular wall of a barn is 7 and the width is 17 feet

Answer:

B) x ≥ –2 or x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can immediately rule out A) All real numbers, since that will almost never be true for an inequality like this. We can also rule out C) 2 ≤ x < 5, since this is not a compound inequality.

Let's see if B) x ≥ –2 or x < 5 works by plugging in an x value greater than -2 and then, plugging in an x value less than 5.

Plug -1 into x

–4(-1) + 1 ≤ 9

4 + 1 ≤ 9

Combine like terms

5 ≤ 9

This is true, 5 is less than 9, so x ≥ –2 works.

Plug 4 into x

4∕5 + 2 < 3

Combine like terms

2.8 < 3

This is true, 2.8 is less than 3.

It can't be D) no solution now that B works, so B) x ≥ –2 or x < 5 is your answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC=ABD+CBD

25x+34=ABD+11x+23

14x+34=ABD+23

ABD=14x+11

ABD=CBD ==> Bisected angles are equal to each other since angle ABC is divided into two equal angles when bisected.

14x+11=11x+23

3x+11=23

3x=12

x=4

ABD=14x+11

ABD=14(4)+11

ABD=56+11

ABD=67 degrees

CBD=11x+23

CBD=11(4)+23

CBD=44+23

CBD=67 degrees

ABC=25x+34

ABC=25(4)+34

ABC=100+34

ABC=134 degrees

Answer:

∠ ABD = 67° , ∠ CBD = 67° , ∠ ABC = 134°

Step-by-step explanation:

since BD bisects ∠ ABC , then

∠ ABD = ∠ CBD = 11x + 23

∠ ABC = ∠ ABD + ∠ CBD ( substitute values )

25x + 34 = 11x + 23 + 11x + 23

25x + 34 = 22x + 46 ( subtract 22x from both sides )

3x + 34 = 46 ( subtract 34 from both sides )

3x = 12 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 4

Then

∠ ABD = 11x + 23 = 11(4) + 23 = 44 + 23 = 67°

∠ CBD = ∠ ABD = 67°

∠ ABC = 25x + 34 = 25(4) + 34 = 100 + 34 = 134°

The real court is 9 by 18 meters in length and width.

The length of something is its width or size measured across its entire surface. Or, to put it another way, it is the larger of a geometric shape's higher two or three dimensions.

This statement implies that the court's original dimensions have been reduced by 22.5 for every 1 centimeter in the size of the current drawing, which is 40 cm by 80 cm. To get the original dimension, we will multiply the required dimension by each 22.5 cm as shown. Original length for a 40-cm length = 40 * 22.5 originally 900 cm long 100 cm equals one meter in metres. Multiply 900cm by x to get 9m: 100x = 900*1x = 900/100x Therefore, 900cm = 9m For the 80-cm width: Original width is equal to 80 * 22.5, or 1800 cm. 100 cm equals one meter in metres. multiplying 1800cm by x yields 100x, 1800*1, 1800/100x, and 18m.
