Let (x1, y1) = (-7, -3) and (x2, y2) = (-2, -9).

First, let's find the slope m:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-9 - -3)/(-2 - -7) = (-9 + 3)/(-2 + 7) = -6/5

(y - y1) = m(x - x1) The point-slope form.

y - -3 = -6/5(x - -7)

y + 3 = -6/5(x + 7)

y + 3 = -(6/5)x - 42/5 add (6/5)x and subtract 3 at both sides;

y + (6/5)x = - 42/5 - 3

(6/5)x + y = -57/5 The general formula.

Assume that a section of double-stranded DNA contains 100 base pairs If 40 of the pairs contain base c how many pairs would contain base a?

If there are 40 pairs containing base C, the remaining pairs must contain the complementary base, G. Since each base pair must contain one A and one T (complementary to each other), the number of pairs containing base A would be the same as the number containing base T. Therefore, there would be 60 pairs containing base A.

What equation best describes the table of ordered pairs?

This kind of question usually accompanies a specific table of ordered pairs. The idea is that the ordered pairs take the form of (x, f(x)) where the first number of the ordered pair x, is a value of the variable for some equation. When that value is used in place of the variable in the equation, we can calculate a specific value. That calculated value appears as the second value of the ordered pair and is represented by f(x) above. Typically the equation is relatively simple, such as a linear equation or a quadratic equation. Therefore, in order to determine the equation, we have to know exactly what the ordered pairs are.
