Hi there!

An equation in the slope-intercept form is written as :

y = mx + b

Where "m" is the slope of the line and "b" is the y-intercept.


Your equation is :

y = -5x - 1

Where you can see that the number in the place of "m" is -5, which is the slope of the line.


Answer : The slope of the line is -5.


There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

Jayson baked a pan of cornbread for a family dinner. He cut the cornbread into equal size pieces. At the end of the dinner, ther
VARVARA [1.3K]
If 1/6 of the pan was left and there were 2 pieces left you just need to set 1/6 equal to 2/some number, this allows you to say that 1/6=2/x --> x/6=2-->x=12. My explanation might be a little poor since this becomes fairly fundamental later on but hopefully it helps.

Someone help me with this question!!
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

k  = 6.5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x + c is given.  Thus, we know immediately that the slope of this line is m = 2.  If (k, 10) is a point on this line, then the following must be true:

10 = 2(k) + c, and

-3  + 2(0) + c

or

10 = 2k + c

c = -3

Thus, 10 = 2k + -3  becomes   13 = 2k, so that k  = 6.5

A disc of unit radius is tossed at random onto a large rectangular floor, which is tiled with $4 \times 6$ tiles. Find the proba
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the disc to be entirely contained in a rectangular tile, its center must be at least 1 unit from the nearest edge.  Which means there's a 2 by 4 region that the center can lie in.

So the probability is (2×4) / (4×6) = 8/24 = 1/3.
