Which line has the equation 2x - 3y = 6? (Please explain how you got your answer)

Mathematics

3 0
First, isolate y:
2x - 3y = 6
-3y = -2x + 6
3y = 2x - 6
y = 2/3x - 2
That means that the line passes through the point (0, -2) and has a positive slope of 2/3. So it would be choice A because the line in choice A passes through the point (1, -2) and has a positive slope. Choice D also passes through the point (0, -2) but has a negative slope so it cannot be the correct answer.
Choice A is correct.

Answer:

-\frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression:

           2x + 5y = -10

The equation of a straight line is;

            y = mx + c

y and x are the coordinates

m is the slope

c is the intercept

 Now;

          let us write the given expression in slope intercept format;

            2x + 5y  = -10

                    5y = -2x - 10

                     y = -\frac{2x}{5}  - 2

So, the slope of the line is -\frac{2}{5}

What is the value of the expression “two less than six times the difference of a number and five” when n = 9?
Finger [1]

Answer:

Try solving 6(n-5)-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe this can be set up as 6(n-5)-2. The difference of a number and five can be represented by n-5. If this needs to be multiplied by 6 (hence 6 times), it would become 6(n-5). Two less than that is represented by -2. Thus, two less than six times the difference of a number and five is 6(n-5) -2, which, when n=9 is plugged in, looks like 6(9-5) -2. Follow PEMDAS from there.
