What is the slope of a line parallel to the line -3x+5y=-10

This looks familiar, right? Like slope-intercept.

y=mx+b, where m is the slope.

Let's right it like that.

5y=3x-10 (add 3x to both sides, since we want to isolate the y.)

Now divide by 5, since - again - we want to isolate the y.

y= 3/5x-10/5 >>>> y= 3/5x-2

I think the slope is 3/5.

If the line happens to be parallel, the slope is the same. If perpendicular, it is opposite reciprocal. So if it was perpendicular, the slope would be -5/3.

The slope can be found re-writting the function in the general format s y=mx+n where m is known as slope. For this case:

-3x+5y=-10, trasponding the x term

5y=3x-10, dividing by 5

y=3x/5-10/5, solving finally have the general format:

y=3/5x-2

Then the slope is the number that precede the x unknow.

Solution. The slope is 3/5.

A coin sorting machine can sort a certain number of coins in 15 min a second machine can sort the same number of coins in 30 min
padilas [110]

Answer:

10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the variable x for the amount of coins.

The first machine can sort x coins in 15 minutes, so its speed is x/15 coins/minute.

The second machine can sort x coins in 30 minutes, so its speed is x/30 coins/minute.

If we sum the speeds, we have that the speed will be:

speed = (x/15) + (x/30) = (2x + x)/30 = 3x/30 = x/10

The total speed can sort x/10 coins per minute, that is x coins in 10 minutes.

I need help on number 8 please
belka [17]
Well, the area of a trapezoid is A = (b_{1} + b_{2}) * h * 1/2 so you can use the area of a parallelogram, which is A = l * w, by splitting the trapezoid into 2 triangles and one rectangle. So you'd use A = l * w for the rectangle and A = 1/2bh for the triangles. You'd get the same answer!
