Answer:

y=-4/10x+ 5 or y=-0.4x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is y=mx+b. The "m" is the slope, the "x" is constant, and "b" is your y-intercept.

1. Figure out your slope:

Easiest way to do this is by using rise/run. You. take your point to the left and count how many spaces up or down it is from the second point, and then repeat that across the x-axis.

2. Determine whether it is positive or negative

A line with a positive slope is going to be angled upward and a line with a negative slope will be angled downward

3. Find the y-intercept

Simply look at the graph and find where the line crosses the y-axis

4. Plug everything into the equation

Once you do Steps 1-3, just plug everything in and you're done! If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Please solve, thank you (and show steps): Solve for x: 5x + 22 = 27

IrinaVladis [17]

Given the equation, 5x + 22 = 27:

The goal is to isolate the variable. Hence, a few mathematical operations are necessary to solve for the value of x.

Start by subtracting 22 both sides:
5x + 22 - 22 = 27 - 22
5x + 0 = 5
5x = 5

Next, divide both sides by 5 to isolate and solve for the value of x:

5x/5 = 5/5

x = 1

In order to verify whether x = 1 satisfies the give equation, we must substitute its value into the given equation:

5x + 22 = 27

5(1) + 22 = 27
5 + 22 = 27
27 = 27 (True statement. This implies that x = 1 is the correct value that satisfies the equation).

Therefore, the correct answer is x = 1.

Five less than a number tripled

Elenna [48]

Answer:

3(n-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Less than indicates subtract and since 5 is less than a number N goes first.

Tripled goes on the outside because the number that is 5 less gets tripled

Assume that after t hours on the job, a factory worker can produce 100te^-.5t units per hour. How many units does the worker pro

VMariaS [17]

The number of units produced by the worker during t hours of work can be modelled by the following function:

$N(t)=100t e^{(-0.5t)}$

To find the number of units produced during first 3 hours, we can substitute 3 for t. This will give us the number of units produced by the worker during first 3 hours.

$N(3)=100(3) e^{-0.5(3)} = 67$

Thus the worker will produce 67 units during the first 3 hours of the work.

On a treasure map, a X is placed at point (9, -7). if the pirates are currently on point (9,3), how many units away are they?

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

They are 10 units away from the treasure

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the points (9, -7) and (9, 3) are both located at the same x-value (9) while their y-values are in one case 3 units above the x-axis, and in the other 7 units BELOW the x-axis. Therefore thy differ by 3 - (-7) units , which totals 10 units.
