Y = mx + b is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line,
where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.
In problems 1 and 3, your equations are written in the y= mx + b form, so you can read the slope and y-intercept directly.
1.
m = -5/2
b = -5
3.
m = -1
b = 3
5.
For problem 5, you need to solve for y to put the equation
in y = mx + b form. Then you can read m and b just like we did
for problems 1 and 3.
4x + 16y = 8
16y = -4x + 8
y = -4/16 x - 8/16
y = -1/4 x - 1/2
m = -1/4
b = -1/2
Answer:
2,023
Step-by-step explanation:
P(8) = 25(8)²-24(8)+615
= 1600- 192 +615
= 2,023

Answer: C) x = 13</h3>
====================================================
Work Shown:
We have a right triangle with legs a = 5 and b = 12. The hypotenuse is c = x which is unknown for now.
Use the pythagorean theorem to find x.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = x^2
25 + 144 = x^2
169 = x^2
x^2 = 169
x = sqrt(169) .... apply the square root to both sides
x = 13
Answer. Option B. 0.8 cents.
Solution:
With a 5-pound box of detergent will wash 20 loads of laundry, then with a 15-pound box (5*3) of detergent will wash 20*3=60 loads of laundry, and you would pay $10.00.
To wash 60 loads of laundry with 5-pound box, you would need three 5-pound box, and you would pay $3.50*3=$10.50.
Then you would save in total $10.50-$10.00=$0.50
And per load, you would save: $0.50/60=$0.008=0.008*100 cents=0.8 cents
