Answer:

-2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the coefficient of x: -2/3.

___

This tells you how much y changes when x changes by 1 unit. The slope is the change in y divided by the change in x.

The commutative property of addition means the order of the addends doesn't matter; we get the same sum. In symbols

$a+b = b+a$

11 + 7 = 7 + 11, choice B, is a good illustration of commutativity.

The next part asks us to use the commutative property. Looking at the choices, we see it's not the commutative property of addition we're to use, it's the commutative property of multiplication. Let's write that generally first:

 $ab = ba$

Applying that, (4 + 7) * 3 = 3*(4+7), again choice B.

The heights of a maple tree and a cherry tree have a ratio of 5:2. If the maple tree grew 20 cm and 20 cm was cut off the top of

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Let x be the heights of a maple tree and y be the height of the cherry tree.
We know:
 $\frac{x}{y} = \frac{5}{2}$
The new ratio is obtained like this:
 $\frac{x+20}{y-20} = \frac{3}{1}$ .
From the above equation we get $x= (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20$ .
then $\frac{ (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20}{y} = \frac{5}{2}$
Solving the above equation for y we get: $y=160$
So $x=400$
So the first tree is (400-160=240) more taller than cherry tree.

What is the additive inverse of the complex number –8 + 3i?

Lady bird [3.3K]

Choices:
–8 – 3i
–8 + 3i
8 – 3i
8 + 3i

The additive inverse of the complex number a + bi is -(a+bi) = -a - bi

In this case, a = -8 and b = 3i

a + bi = -8 + 3i
additive inverse is: -(-8+3i) = +8 - 3i

The additive inverse of the complex number -8 + 3i is 8 - 3i. The 3rd choice.
