I think it is supposed to be set up in y=mx+b form so it should have been y=2/3x-5.... but the slope would be 2/3

Answer:

Slope = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of the line represented by the equation y=2/3-5x

y=\frac{2}{3} -5x

To find slope of a line we use equation y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

lets write the equation in the form of y=mx+b

y=-5x+\frac{2}{3}

the number before x is the slope

so Slope = -5

Answer:

(-6,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Lets get started!

By looking at this problem, we see that both equations equal 2. This makes this problem much easier!

While there are a few methods you could solve this, I will use substitution. First, I need to find what x is in terms of y!

There are many different ways you could do this, here are two:

-x = 2-2y ==> x = -2+2y

-x + 2y = -3x + 8y ==> 2x = 6y ==> x = 3y

For this problem, I am going to use the second answer, x = 3y, as it is simpler!

We need to substitute 3y in for x in either equation; I am going to use the first equation, -x + 2y = 2.

-3y + 2y = 2

-y = 2

y = -2

Now, lets solve for x!

-x + 2(-2) = 2

-x - 4 = 2

-x = 6

x = -6

After plugging the answers into both equations, we see that they are in fact true!

Therefor, our final answer is (-6, -2)

A barrel contains 15 1/3 liters of water. 3/4 of the water was used to water plants.
liq [111]
Change the 15 1/3 to an improper fraction (46/3). Next multiply this by (3/4).
(46/3)(3/4) = 46/4 = 23/2 = 11.5 gallons was used to water the plants

15 1/3 - 11 1/2 = 46/3 - 23/2 = 92/6 - 69/6 = 23/6 = 3 5/6 gallons of water are left in the barrel

A train left a station a station at noon going 40mph. A second train left at 3 p.m. going 60mph. At what time will the second tr
Sati [7]

Here speed of first train is slower than speed of second train. So if they catch up , the distance traveled will be same since they left the same station at different times.

But the time traveled will be different .

Let us say the two trains meet at time t ,

Distance = speed * time

Distance traveled by first train = 40 t

Since second train is leaving after three hours , so

Distance traveled by second train = 60(t-3)

As discussed earlier, distance traveled will be same, so

40t =60(t-3)

distributing 60 over t-3

40t =60t-180

60t -40t=180

20t =180

t =180/20

t=9

So the second train will meet the first at 9 p.m.
