Answer:

y=2/-1+8

Step-by-step explanation:

-4= (-4,0) -4=x1 0=y1, 8= (0,8) 0=x2 8=y2
formula is, y2-y1/x2-x1
8-0/0-4=8/-4=4/-2= 2/-1
2/-1 is the slope or (m), use (-4,0) or (0,8) i used (0,8) because its easier.
(0,8), 0=x1 8=y1
formula is y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-8=2/-1(x-0) ---->distribute
y-8=2/-1x-0 --->get y alone

+8 +8

so the answer is y=2/-1+8

A jar contains 8 4/9 pounds of jam. If Sam eats 3 2/5 pounds of the jam, how many pounds of jam remains in the jar?

zepelin [54]

$\bf 8\frac{4}{9}\implies \cfrac{8\cdot 9+4}{9}\implies \cfrac{76}{9}
\\\\\\
3\frac{2}{5}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 5+2}{5}\implies \cfrac{17}{5}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{76}{9}-\cfrac{17}{5}\impliedby \textit{let's use an LCD of 45}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 76-9\cdot 17}{45}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{380-153}{45}\implies \cfrac{227}{45}\implies \boxed{5\frac{2}{45}}
\\\\\\
5\frac{2}{45}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 45+2}{45}\implies \cfrac{227}{45}$

Is this number written in scientific notation 4.8•100^7

Ne4ueva [31]

No this number is not written in scientific notation
In scientific notation, it'll look like
4.8 * 10 ^14

In scientific notation it's 10 ^ n
NOT 100^n

Hope this helps
