Answer:
Both of these equations are in slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y=mx+b
Where m is the y-intercept value.
y=-2x+5
y=-2x+20
The slope of the two equations are: m1=−2 and m2=−2
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the have the same slope it means the lines represented by these two equations are either parallel or are the same line.
The y-intercepts for the two lines are:b1 = 5 and b1=20
2/3 of 225
= 2/3 x 225
= 150
Answer:
y= -5x +24
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Slope-intercept form</u>
y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
Given that the slope is -5, m= -5.
Substitute m= -5 into the equation:
y= -5x +c
To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates that the line passes through into the equation:
When x= 3, y= 9,
9= -5(3) +c
9= -15 +c
c= 9 +15
c= 24
Thus, the equation of the line is y= -5x +24.
