Ask questions in the comment section if you have questions. I'm happy to help! <3

Step-by-step explanation:

What the question is telling you is that x and y and proportional, almost like a ratio.

<h2>x : y</h2><h2>-3 : 6</h2>

Now we have to find y when x is four.

<h2>-3 : 6</h2><h3>     to </h3><h2> 4 : y</h2><h2 />

Let's create a proportional equation...

<h3>(-3 / 6) = 4 / y</h3><h3>- 1 / 2 = 4 / y</h3>

What can we divide by four to create -1/2?

<h2>y = -8.</h2>

Answer:

y = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

6/-3 = -2

4 * -2 = -8

y = -8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressing as equations

9x + 10y = 297 → (1) ← that is B

8x + 5y = 194 → (2) ← that is D

To solve the system of equations, multiply (2) by - 2

- 16x - 10y = - 388 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate the term in y

(9x - 16x) + (10y - 10y) = (297 - 388), that is

- 7x = - 91 ( divide both sides by - 7 )

x = 13

Substitute x = 13 into either of the 2 equations and solve for y

Using (1), then

(9 × 13) + 10y = 297

117 + 10y = 297 ( subtract 117 from both sides )

10y = 280 ( divide both sides by 10 )

y = 28

Slope intercept of (2,-12) and (5,6)
nlexa [21]

Answer:

<em>The slope of the line is m=6.  </em>

<em>The y-intercept is (0,−24).  </em>

<em>The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y=6x−24.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line passing through the two points P=(x1,y1) and Q=(x2,y2) is given by m=y2−y1x2−x1.

We have that x1=2, y1=−12, x2=5, y2=6.

Plug the given values into the formula for the slope: m=(6)−(−12)(5)−(2)=183=6.

Now, the y-intercept is b=y1−m⋅x1 (or b=y2−m⋅x2, the result is the same).

b=−12−(6)⋅(2)=−24.

Finally, the equation of the line can be written in the form y=mx+b.

y=6x−24.

Answer:

The slope of the line is m=6.

The y-intercept is (0,−24).

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y=6x−24.
