Answer:

y = -x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use y = mx + c to find the equation of the line.

Here,

m ⇒ slope of the line

c ⇒ y - intercept

They have already given that,

m ⇒ -1

c ⇒ -5

So, now we can write the equation of the line like this.

To write the equation of the line you can replace m and c with -1 & -5 respectively.

<u>Let us write now.</u>

y = m x + c

<u>y = -1x - 5</u>

Answer:

y = -x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

Since you have been given the slope and y-intercept, you can substitute these values into the equation to find the answer.

m = -1                  

b = -5

y = mx + b

y = (-1)x + (-5)

y = -x - 5

Answer:

i think B but I’m not 100% sure lol

Step-by-step explanation:

Here’s what I found on this app

3w + 8 - w = 4w - 2(w - 4)

2w + 8 = 4w - 2w + 8

2w + 8 = 2w + 8

Demi traveled 480 miles in 6 hours. What was her average speed in miles per hour?
abruzzese [7]
The classic formula relating rate (also called “average speed”), time and distance is:

r x t = d

That is, rate x time equals distance. The problem statement asks us for the rate and gives us the time (6 hours) and distance (480 miles). We can substitute those values into the classic formula:

r x 6 hours = 480 miles

To solve for r, we divide the terms on both sides of the equal sign by 6 hours. This works because the two sides are equal and we treat them equally by dividing the two sides by the same amount, so the results should be equal. Thus we get:

r = 480 miles/6 hours

Simplifying, we get:

r = 80 miles/hour

To CHECK, let’s plug back into the original equation:

r x t = d

80 miles/ hour x 6 hours = 480 miles

480 miles = 480 miles which is true. Yippee.
