Find the slope and the y-intercept of the equation 4x + 5y = -9

Mathematics
1 answer:
lutik1710 [3]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

In your equation 4x+5y=-9, you've got to but your equation in slope intercept form which is y=mx+b.

First we need to get the y by itself.

Subtract 4x from each side to get:

5y=-4x-9

Next we want to divide both sides by 5.

y=-4/5x-9/5

Your slope is m which in our case -4/5.

Then our y-intercept is b or -9/5.

Your answer would then be C. slope=-4/5 and y-intercept=-9/5.

Hope this helps ;)

Find the roots for the above given quadratic equation.<br><br> Please show the working too.
Mars2501 [29]

Step-by-step explanation:

9x^{2} - 9 (a + b)x + 2a^{2} + 5ab + 2b^{2} = 0\\9x^{2} - 3[(3a + 3b)]x + 2a^{2} + 4ab +ab + 2b^{2} = 0\\9x^{2} - 3[(a + 2b) + (2a + b)]x + 2a[a + 2b] + b [a + 2b] = 0\\9x^{2} - 3(a + 2b)x - 3 (2a + b)  + (a + 2b)(2a + b) = 0\\3x [3x - (a + 2b)] -(2a + b)[3x - (a + 2b)]=0\\\:\: [3x - (a + 2b)] - [3x - (2a + b)] = 0\\\\\\\\\circ\:3x - (2a + b) = 0\\\boxed{\underline{x = \frac{2a + b}{3} }}\\\\\\\\\circ\:3x - (2a + b) = 0\\\boxed{\underline{x = \frac{a + 2b}{3} }}

So, the roots are:

<u>1) x = 2a + b/3</u>

<u>2) x = a + 2b/3</u>

Hope it helps!

How many solutions does the equation have? 6-a = 1/3(9a-18)
Alex777 [14]
6 - a = \frac{1}{3} (9a - 18)

First, simplify \frac{1}{3} (9a - 18) to \frac{9a-18}{3} / Your problem should look like: 6 - a =  \frac{9a - 18}{3}
Second, multiply both sides by 3. / Your problem should look like: 18 - 3a = 9(a - 2)
Third, expand. / Your problem should look like: 18 - 3a = 9a - 18
Fourth, add 3a to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 18 = 9a - 18 + 3a
Fifth, simplify 9a - 18 + 3a to 12a - 18. / Your problem should look like: 18 = 12a - 18
Sixth, add 18 to both sides. / Your problem should look like: 18 + 18 = 12a
Seventh, add 18 + 18 to get 36. / Your problem should look like: 36 = 12a
Eighth, divide both sides by 12. / Your problem should look like: \frac{36}{12} = a
Ninth, since 3 goes into 12 to get 36, simplify \frac{36}{12} to 3. / Your problem should look like: 3 = a
Tenth, switch sides. / Your problem should look like: a = 3

Answer: a = 3 (one solution)

A rectangle has an area of 143 square meters and a width of 6. 5 meters. What is the length, l, of this rectangle? l = 121 m l =
lapo4ka [179]
L = 22 because area equals length times width. So if you divide the area (143) by the width (6.5) you get 22

Type the correct answer in each box. Use numbers instead of words. The cost of cereal is proportional to the number of ounces. C
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the cost per ounce, divide the cost by the number of ounces. The cost is $2.72 and the number of ounces is 16, so the cost per ounce is $2.72/16 = 0.17. Multiply the cost per ounce by the amount asked to calculate for, 0.17 x 28 = $4.76

To conclude, the cost of 28 ounces of cereals is $4.76.
