Answer:

slope = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure of an equation in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept. Since the given equation is not in the exact slope-intercept form, we need to rearrange it to identify the slope.

y + 2x = 5 <----- Given equation

y = -2x + 5 <----- Subtract 2x from both sides

Now, we can see that in the "m" position, there is a value of -2. This makes the slope = -2.

Explain how to use multiplication to find

Sindrei [870]

A fraction x/y is a ratio between two numbers x and y.

The ratio is preserved if both x and y are scaled up or down by the same number n.

This means you can obtain any fraction equivalent to x/y by multiplying both x and y by n, i.e. (n*x)/(n*y).

Then we have 1/4 = (2*1)/(2*4) = 2/8, for example.

Answers:

Pair-1: $log_{2}x = 5$ ↔ 32
Pair-2: $log_{10}x = 3$ ↔ 1000
Pair-3: $log_{4}x = 2$ ↔ 16
Pair-4: $log_{5}x = 4$ ↔ 625

Explanation:

Pair-1:
$log_{2}x = 5 \\ \frac{ln(x)}{ln(2)} = 5 \\ ln(x) = 5 * ln(2) \\ x = e^{5*ln(2)} \\ x = 32$

Pair-2:
$log_{10}x = 3 \\ \frac{ln(x)}{ln(10)} = 3 \\ ln(x) = 3 * ln(10) \\ x = e^{3*ln(10)} \\ x = 1000$

Pair-3:
$log_{4}x = 2 \\ \frac{ln(x)}{ln(4)} = 2 \\ ln(x) = 2 * ln(4) \\ x = e^{2*ln(4)} \\ x = 16$

Pair-4:
$log_{5}x = 4 \\ \frac{ln(x)}{ln(5)} = 4 \\ ln(x) = 4 * ln(5) \\ x = e^{4*ln(5)} \\ x = 625$

Answer:

L = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the Length x and width x - 15 since the width is 15 less than length

Eric needs 70 of fencing in total, the perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding all sides

x + x + (x - 15) + (x - 15) = 70 add like terms

4x - 30 = 70 add 30 to both sides

4x = 100 divide both sides by 4

x = 25
