Question is using standard formula ax+by=c to find the slope by converting into slope intercept form y=mx+b
so we also need to convert ax+by=c into y=mx+b as shown below:



divide both sides by

Now compare it with y=mx+b, we get

So using values of a and b, we can find the slope
compare given equation -5x+2y=15 with ax+by=c, we get:
a=-5, b=2
Now plug both into above formula



Now matching these details with given choices we find that THIRD choice is the final answer.
We have to convert 2% in to a decimal then multiply it into the x-value which is the months with the addition of 500 because that is the start value.If you were to graph this it would be a linear fuction, y=0.2x+500. The rate of change is found by slope, so rise over run. taking 2 points on the graph and do this
(y 2-y 1)/(x 2-x 1) and graph the equation and get two of the points and find the slope for the rate of change.
Answer:
the slope is the fraction and the y int is zero

Answer:
x = 0 or x = 1/2 and x = -1 for the second equation
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
4 x^2 - 2 x = 0
Factor x and constant terms from the left hand side:
2 x (2 x - 1) = 0
Divide both sides by 2:
x (2 x - 1) = 0
Split into two equations:
x = 0 or 2 x - 1 = 0
Add 1 to both sides:
x = 0 or 2 x = 1
Divide both sides by 2:
Answer: x = 0 or x = 1/2
_______________________________
Solve for x:
x^2 + 2 x + 1 = 0
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x + 1)^2 = 0
Take the square root of both sides:
x + 1 = 0
Subtract 1 from both sides:
Answer: x = -1
