Here are the instructions. Then we'll do your specific problem.

Step 1: Solve the equation for y, and write it in the form y = mx + b.

Step 2: The slope is m, and the y-intercept is b.

Now let's start.

-2x - 5y = -20

To solve for y, we first add 2x to both sides.

-5y = 2x - 20

Now we divide both sides by -5.

y = -\dfrac{2}{5}x + 4

Now we compare what we got with the form, y = mx + b.

We see that m = -2/5, and b = 4. m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

slope: -2/5

y-intercept: 4

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

13.448, rounded off: 13.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

r=\frac{C}{2\pi }

Where r = radius, C = circumference.

r=\frac{84.5}{2\pi } =13.448 = 13.5 ft

How do we put the points (0,7) and (8,-2) into slope intercept form
Vinil7 [7]
The formula for slope intercept form is y=mx+b where x is the slope and b is the y intercept. To find the slope you would have to do -2-7 over 8-0 and that would give you -9/8. That would be your slope. And I think you should be given a graph I’m not sure but if there is look at it and see what point you see on the y axis

Answer:

You use trigonometry.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use soh cah toa. Basically you pic one side and if the interior angle is opposite or next to it, you you soh, or cah, or toa, it's based on where the angle is.

Describe the error in the work shown.
mihalych1998 [28]

The error was in second step.

3√(y^3)^4 = y^4

(Cube root cancels cube and not power 4)

The answer should be:

xy^4/4
