Answer:

The slope is .075 and the y intercept is -.125

Step-by-step explanation:

8y = .2(3x -5)

Distribute the .2

8y = .6x - 1

Divide by 8

8y/8 = .6x/8 -1/8

y = .075x -.125

This is in slope intercept form y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope is .075 and the y intercept is -.125

Help! I need to know how to solve this

bagirrra123 [75]

Every triangle measures 180 degrees.
In order to get the answer you need to add every equation and set it equal to 180.

2x+4+2x-9+x=180
Combine like terms.
5x-5=180
Add 5 to the other side.
5x=185
Divide by 5.
x = 37

Now, plug 37 in for every x.
Angle A: 2(37)-9
Angle B: 2(37)+4
Angle C: 37

The measures are:
Angle A = 65
Angle B = 78
Angle C = 37

Hope this helps!

Is the quotient of 3/5 ÷ 6/7 greater than or less than 3/5? Explain

Vikki [24]

The quotient of two fraction is the multiplication between the first and the inverse of the second:

$\dfrac{a}{b} \div \dfrac{c}{d} = \dfrac{a}{b} \cdot \dfrac{d}{c}$

So, in your case, you have

$\dfrac{3}{5} \div \dfrac{6}{7} = \dfrac{3}{5} \cdot \dfrac{7}{6} = \dfrac{7}{10}$

So, the question now is: which is larger, 7/10 or 3/5? To answer this question, transform the second fraction so that it will have denominator 10 as well:

$\dfrac{3}{5} = \dfrac{3\cdot 2}{5 \cdot 2} = \dfrac{6}{10}$
