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.

A jug contains some orange juice. After pouring 240 milliliters of the orange juice into a cup, there are 875 milliliters of ora
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

1,115 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

The original amount of OJ is what we're trying to find, so that will be our variable, x. Now, keep in mind the order of events to write the correct equation. We started with the x amount of OJ, then 240 mL was taken away, to leave us with 875 mL. So, x - 240 = 875. Then we solve this by adding 240 to both sides to get the x alone. This gives us x=1,115 mL!
