slope = - $\frac{5}{2}$

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - $\frac{5}{2}$ x - 5 is in this form

with slope m = - $\frac{5}{2}$

Ind the slope and y intercept of -9x+3y=5

Radda [10]

Answer:

first, you need to get y on one side. So, because the x is negative it becomes positive when you switch it to the other side. 3y= 9x+5. You then need to divide all parts by 3. 3/3= 1 so thats just y. 9/3 is 3 so thats 3x. then 5/3 is a fraction that you can write as just 5/3 or 1 and 2/3. That would leave you with y= 3x + 5/3. Then x (3) is your slope. and what you add to it (5/3) is your y int.

What is the true solution to In 20+ In 5= 2 In x? x=5. A X= 10 b X=50 c X= 100 d

lions [1.4K]

ln(20) + ln(5) = 2 ln(x)

ln(20×5) = ln(x ²)

ln(100) = ln(x ²)

100 = x ²

x = 10
