Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Rearrange 6x + 10y = 8 into this form by subtracting 6x from both sides

10y = - 6x + 8 ( divide all terms by 10 )

y = - $\frac{3}{5}$ x + $\frac{4}{5}$ ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - $\frac{3}{5}$ → C

What number goes in the box in the followng sequence 5 11 23 ? 95 191

Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The number that should go after 23 is 47.

The pattern seems to be (n * 2) + 1, where n is the value of the previous number.

We start with the number 5:

(5 * 2) + 1 = 11

(11 * 2) + 1 = 23

(23 * 2) + 1 = 47

... and so on

The pattern should continue as follows.

Hope this helps!

If BTS=GHD BS=25 TS=14 BT=31 GD=4x-11 S=56 B=21 and H=(7y+5) find the values of x and y

77julia77 [94]

Given:

Consider the completer question is "If ∆BTS≅∆GHD, BS=25, TS=14, BT=31, GD=4x-11, m∠S=56, m∠B=21 and m∠H=(7y+5), find the values of x and y.

To find:

The values of x and y.

Solution:

We have,

$\Delta BTS\cong \Delta GHD$ (Given)

$BS=GD$ (CPCTC)

$25=4x-11$

$25+11=4x$

$36=4x$

Divide both sides by 4.

$9=x$

In ∆BTS,

$\angle B+\angle T+\angle S=180^\circ$ (Angle sum property)

$21^\circ+\angle T+56^\circ=180^\circ$

$77^\circ+\angle T=180^\circ$

$\angle T=180^\circ-77^\circ$

$\angle T=103^\circ$

Now,

$\angle T=\angle H$ (CPCTC)

$103=7y+5$

$103-5=7y$

$98=7y$

Divide both sides by 7.

$14=y$

Therefore, the value of x is 9 and value of y is 14.

Hi there!<br><br> Can you help me please? Thanks! <br><br> Please explain

Bingel [31]

H=-t^2+95
The y intercept here is 95, and it represented from where the boy threw the ball.

If he threw it from 95 ft above the ground, the best answer for where he is is on a bridge.
His backyard is at 0 ft (sea level). An underground cave is below sea level. A ladder is probably not 95 ft.

Final answer: D

Using the distributive property,simplify the following: 5(x+2)

MArishka [77]

The answer is 5x + 10 because you have to times 5 by everything in the parenteses
