What is the slope? What is the y-intercept? What is the equation of the line (slope intercept form?)

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

The slope is: m = -²/₅

The y-intercept is: b = -2

The equation of the line: y = -²/₅x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope intercept form: y = mx + b

The slope: $m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

(-5, 0) ⇒ x₁ = -5, y₁ = 0

(0, -2) ⇒ x₂ = 0, y₂ = -2

So:

$m=\dfrac{-2-0}{0-(-5)}=-\dfrac25$

Greta is trying to determine the portion of green candies in various bags of green and yellow candies. Using the information bel

IrinaK [193]

Answer: a) $\dfrac{1}{3}$ b) $\dfrac{71}{100}$ c) $\dfrac{5}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

There are green and yellow candies in each bag.

Bag A: Two thirds of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Part of yellow candies in bag A = $\dfrac{2}{3}$

Part of green candies in bag A would be

$1-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{3-2}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{3}$

Bag B: 29 % of the candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Percentage of candies are yellow = 29%

Portion of candies are green is given by

$1-\dfrac{29}{100}\\\\=1-0.29\\\\=0.71\\\\=\dfrac{71}{100}$

Bag C: 4 out of every 9 candies are yellow. What portion of the candies is green?

Portion of yellow candies = $\dfrac{4}{9}$

Portion of green candies would be

$1-\dfrac{4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{9-4}{9}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{9}$

Hence, a) $\dfrac{1}{3}$ b) $\dfrac{71}{100}$ c) $\dfrac{5}{9}$

To prepare for a bake-off, Chad used 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks. How many kilograms did Chad use in those 2 weeks?

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

7.280 k

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 1 g = 0.001 k

If he uses 520 grams of flour each day for 2 weeks, since there are 7 days in a week, the total weight of flour used in two weeks

= 520 g * 2 * 7

= 7280 g

In kilograms

Since

1 g = 0.001 k

7280 g = 7280/1 * 0.001 k

= 7.280 k
