How do you turn 2x+3y=20 into slope intercept form?

Mathematics

IRISSAK [1]1 year ago

Answer:

The slope intercept form of the equation is:

y=-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{20}{3}

Explanation:

Given the equation;

2x+3y=20

We want to re-write it in slope-intercept form;

\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ m=\text{slope} \\ b=\text{ y-intercept} \end{gathered}

To do that, let us make y the subject of formula in the given equation;

subtract 2x from both sides;

\begin{gathered} 2x-2x+3y=-2x+20 \\ 3y=-2x+20 \end{gathered}

then divide both sides by 3 ( the coefficient of y);

\begin{gathered} \frac{3y}{3}=\frac{-2x}{3}+\frac{20}{3} \\ y=-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{20}{3} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the slope intercept form of the equation is;

y=-\frac{2}{3}x+\frac{20}{3}

Answer:

Tommy had 56 cents in start and Loren had 7 cents in start.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

x be the money Tommy have.

y be the money Loren have.

According to given statement;

Tommy had 8 times more money than Loren.

x = 8y     Eqn 1

Parents gave 35 cents to Loren and Tommy spent 14 cents, therefore

x-14=y+35    Eqn 2

Putting x=8y in Eqn 2

8y-14=y+35\\8y-y=35+14\\7y=49

Dividing both sides by 7

\frac{7y}{7}=\frac{49}{7}\\y=7

Putting y=7 in Eqn 1

x=8(7)\\x=56

Hence,

Tommy had 56 cents in start and Loren had 7 cents in start.

The atmospheric pressure at sea level is 14.7 lb/in2. This pressure is reduced by half for each 3.6 miles above sea level. Which
Nina [5.8K]
It could be a linear graph with a negative slope 
x axis  is height above ground and y axis id air pressure
so there willbe a point  at (0,14.7) on y axis representing the pressure at sea level. There will be another point at (3.6, 7.35) where  air pressure is half that at ground level. The straight line will continue until it reaches the x axis  ad (0, 7.2)  where there is no air pressure.
