The y-intercept of the equation that represent the relationship between x and y in the table is -6

<h3>How to determine the y-intercept?</h3>

From the table, we have the following highlight:

As the x values increase by 2,
The y values increase by 3

This means that:

As the x values decrease by 2,
The y values decrease by 3

From the table, we have:

x = 2 when y = -9

Decrease the values of x and y

x = 0 when y = -6

Hence, the y-intercept is -6

What is the slope of this line?

nataly862011 [7]

Answer: $-\frac{8}{5}$

Remember: RISE/RUN (y/x). Lines that are increasing have a positive slope, and lines that are decreasing have a negative slope.

You can find the slope in two ways:

1. Useful if the line is graphed: count the units between 2 points on the line.

Let's use the points (-1, 4) and (4, -4).

(-1, 4) is 8 units higher than (4, -4) and 5 units to the left of (4, -4).

Because the line is decreasing, the slope is negative.

Therefore, the slope is $-\frac{8}{5}$ .

2. Useful if the line is not graphed: find the difference between the y-coordinate values divided by the difference of the x-coordinate values.

Let's use the points (-1, 4) and (4, -4).
$\frac{-4 - 4}{4 - (-1)} = \frac{-8}{5}$

Therefore, the slope is $-\frac{8}{5}$ .

How do you Divide 88 by1/4+20=?

Artyom0805 [142]

88 divided by 1/4 can be placed like this: 88/1 divided by 1/4, which should lead to an answer of 22/1 or 22. Then you add 20, so 22 plus 20 would equal 42. 42 is the correct answer.

If all city buses carry the same number of passengers, what is the least number of buses needed to carry 710 passengers? 5 10 11

noname [10]

The least number of buses needed to carry 710 passengers is 5.

Option A)5 is the correct answer.

<h3>What is the least number of buses needed to carry 710 passengers? </h3>

Given that;

Number of passengers n = 710
Least number of buses need B = ?

To get the least number of buses, we say;

Number of buses B = 710 ÷ 150

Number of buses B = 4.7 ≈ 5

The least number of buses needed to carry 710 passengers is 5.

Option A)5 is the correct answer.
