Answer:

Slope m = -5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 8y = 16

Making y as subject of formula

8y = -5x + 16

Dividing each term by 8

8y/8 = -5x/8 + 16/8

y = -5x/8 + 2

Comparing with y = mx + c

Where m = slope and c the y intercept

Slope m = -5/8

Masja [62]

Answer:

$34,000

Step-by-step explanation:

First they had 30,000

Then wrote off 40,000

So balance is 30,000 - 40,000 = -10,000

Now, they want 8% of 300,000 as uncollectible. So that would be

0.08 * 300,000 = 24,000

Thus, to bring the balance to 24,000 [balance is -10,000], how much would they need to add?? Let it be x:

-10,000 + x = 24,000

x = 24,000 + 10,000 = $34,000
