y=mx+b is slope-intercept form, which is a way of writing an equation for a line.

In this equation, m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept.

x and y are the coordinates of a point on the resulting line.

Here are some examples:

y=3x+2

y=-2x-4

y=8x-1

y=-7x+5

A rectangular corral is enclosed using 120 m of fencing. The corral uses the side of a barn as one of its sides, so fencing is r
Yuliya22 [10]
The dimensions would be 40 m by 40 m.

To maximize area and minimize perimeter we make the dimensions as close to equal as possible.  Since we only need fencing on 3 sides, 120/3 = 40; we can use 40 for each side.

Madam Siti bought the same lengths of red and yellow ribbons. After she used 836 cm of the red ribbon, the length of the yellow
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: 1045 cm of red ribbon and 1045 cm of yellow ribbon

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let R represent the amount red ribbon and Y represent the amouont of yellow ribbon.

  • bought the same lengths of red and yellow: R = Y
  • after used 286 of red, yellow is 5 times the remaining red; 5(R - 836) = Y

Use substitution method to solve:

5(R - 836) = R

5R - 4180 = R   <em>distributed 5 on the left side</em>

4R - 4180 = 0   <em>subtracted R from both sides</em>

4R = 4180         <em>added 4180 to both sides</em>

R = 1045         <em>divided both sides by 4</em>
