Answer:

y=mx+b is the formula. So -8=-3x+5 would be the answer..

since (x,y) just substitute these numbers you have it into the formulas... Take y from (5,-8) and place it into y=mx+b. Next take the slope which is -3. And then since its a postive number we <em>add</em> are x from (x,y). -8=-3x+5. We also add x next to the slope (-3) becuase we are trying to solve for x. And we <em>always</em> put it next to the slope. Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

note :

Use the point-slope formula.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1) you have : m=-3 and x_1 = 5 and y_1 = -8

an equation in the point-slope is : y +8 = m(x - 5)

julsineya [31]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

8/13

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Given in the question

Ratio of sandwiches white bread to brown bread is 10 : 3

white bread fraction = 10/13

brown bread fraction = 3/13

It is also provided that

2/3 white are vegetarian

1/2 brown are vegetarian

for white bread vegetables sandwich we will find 2/3 of 10

20/3/13

for brown bread vegetable sandwich we will find 1/2 of 3

3/2/13

adding both

20/3/13 + 3/2/13

8/13 (approximate)

Without drawing the graphs, find the points of intersection of the lines: a 7x+4y=23 and 8x–10y=19

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

(3,0.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system has equations:

$7x + 4y = 23 \\ 8x - 10y = 19$

Let us multiply the second equation by 4 and the first equation by 10.

$70x + 40y = 230 \\ 32x - 40y = 76$

We add both new equations to get:

$102x = 306 \\ x = \frac{306}{102} = 3$

Put x=3 into the first equation and solve for y.

$7(3) + 4y = 23 \\ 21 + 4y = 23 \\ 4y = 23 - 21 \\ 4y = 2 \\ y = \frac{1}{2}$

The point of intersection is the solution to the system of equation which is (3,0.5)

fgiga [73]

Answer:

The answer is

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of a line given a point and slope we use the formula

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question

Slope / m = - 2

The point is ( 10, - 9)

Substitute the values into the above formula

That's the final answer is

Hope this helps you

Kathleen had a bag of candy-coated chocolates. Of the 55 candies in the bag, 20% were red, 30% were orange, 30% were green, and

Marysya12 [62]

So 20% is 1/5 and 1/5 of 55 is 11. That means there are in total 11 blue candies if 1/5 of them is damaged then technically 2.2 of them are which is kinda weird as it doesn't give whole number
