Answer:

y=\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{38}{3}

the value of b is -38/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y=\frac{5}{3} x+b goes through the point (7,-1)

we need to find out b for the given equation using (7,-1)

Plug in 7 for x  and -1 for y

y=\frac{5}{3} x+b

-1=\frac{5}{3} (7)+b

-1=\frac{35}{3}+b

subtract 35/3 from both sides

-1 -\frac{35}{3} =b

\frac{-38}{3} =b

Replace it in the original equation

y=\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{38}{3}

A number is three less than six times another numbers. The sum is 53. Find the numbers
Pachacha [2.7K]
X = 6y - 3
x + y = 53

6y - 3 + y = 53
7y - 3 = 53
7y = 53 + 3
7y = 56
y = 56/7
y = 8

x = 6y - 3
x = 6(8) - 3
x = 48 - 3
x = 45

ur numbers are : 8 and 45

Given that 35.8 x 4.23= 151.434<br>write down a division sum with an answer of 423.​
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

  151434/358 = 423

Step-by-step explanation:

Every product with non-zero factors can be written as an equivalent division relation.

  a·b = c   ⇒   a = c/b

Here, we have 35.8 × 4.23 = 151.434. This can be written as the equivalent ...

  4.23 = 151.434/35.8

We can multiply this by 100 to get a division relation with a quotient of 423:

  423 = 15143.4/35.8

If we want, we can move the decimal points another place to the right to get ...

  151434/358 = 423

Charlotte’s weekly paycheck is based on the number of hours worked during the week and on the weekend. If she works 13 hours dur
Gelneren [198K]
I am setting the week hourly rate to x, and the weekend to y.  Here is how the equation is set up:

13x + 14y = $250.90
15x + 8y = $204.70

This is a system of equations, and we can solve it by multiplying the top equation by 4, and the bottom equation by -7.  Now it equals:

52x + 56y = $1003.60
-105x - 56y = -$1432.90

Now we add these two equations together to get:

-53x = -$429.30 --> 53x = $429.30 --> (divide both sides by 53) x = 8.10.  This is how much she makes per hour on a week day.

Now we can plug in our answer for x to find y.  I am going to use the first equation, but you could use either.

$105.30 + 14y = $250.90.  Subtract $105.30 from both sides --> 14y = $145.60 divide by 14 --> y = $10.40

Now we know that she makes $8.10 per hour on the week days, and $10.40 per hour on the weekends.  Subtracting 8.1 from 10.4, we figure out that she makes $2.30 more per hour on the weekends than week days.
