The answer is 5/2. The equation is already in point slope form. If you recall, the equation for point slope form is y-y1 = m(x-x1) where y1 and x1 are points on the graph, and m is the slope. In the given equation, m is 5/2 so we know it is the slope.
Alternatively, if you are not familiar with the point slope for equation, you can manipulate the equation to the form of y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the constant. If you solve for y, you get y=5/2x-1 since 5/2 is in the place of m, we know 5/2 is the slope.

Ally collects stickers as a hobby. She gives her sisters of her stickers.

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

$\frac{16}{25}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Ally gives her sister = 1/5 stickers

Ally gives her cousin = 1/5 of the remainder stickers

Assume Number of sticker Ali has = 1

Remainder after giving stickers to her sister = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5

Number of stickers she gave her sister = $\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{4}{5}$

= $\frac{4}{25}$

Sticker she has = $1-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{4}{25}$

= $\frac{25-5-4}{25}$

= $\frac{16}{25}$

Sticker left with Ally is equal to $\frac{16}{25}$ .

3. At a bargain store, Jamal bought 2 items that each cost the same amount. Isaiah bought 3 items that each cost the same amount

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

$6.75 and $4.50

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Jamal spent:

Isaiah spent:

3 (x - 2.25)

The equation is:

2x = 3(x - 2.25)

b) Solving the equation

2x = 3x - 6.75
3x - 2x = 6.75
x = 6.75

c) Jamal's items cost

$6.75 each

Isaiah's items cost

$6.75 - $2.25 = $4.50 each

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the measure of <AOC (the big angle) as 90°

and the measure of <BOC as 14° and the measure of <AOB as (3x+46)°

we want to find the value of what x is

because of angle addition postulate, m<AOC=m<BOC+m<AOB

so we can substitute our known values into that equation

90°=14°+3x°+46°

our goal is to isolate the variable of x onto one side

add 14 and 46 together

90°=3x°+60°

subtract 60° from both sides

30°=3x°

divide both sides by 3

10°=x

therefore B is your answer

Hope this helps!
