Y=-2x would be the answer.

3 0

Answer:

y=-2x

Step-by-step explanation:

we know linear functions can be in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b.

we are given the point (1,-2) so x=1 y=-2 and m=-2 because the slope is -2

so lets plug that into the slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

-2=-2(1)+b  multiply

-2=-2+b   add two on both sides

0=b

so it has the form y=-2x+0 aka y=-2x

Explain how you would solve 5x - 3 = 9. (there should be a minimum of 2<br> complete sentences). *
SpyIntel [72]
Haha, you first start off with adding 3 to both sides, cancelling the -3, and adding it to 9. you end up with 5x=12, in which you divide both sides by 5. you get 2 and 2/5 or 12/5! hope that helps :)

What is solution of 5+3(y-4)=5(y+2)-y
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

y = -17

Step-by-step explanation:

5 + 3(y - 4) = 5(y + 2) - y        Distribute

5 + 3y -12 = 5y + 10 - y          Combine like terms

-7 + 3y = 4y + 10

+7                 +17                    Add 17 to both sides

3y = 4y + 17

-4y   -4y                                 Subtract 4y from both sides

-y = 17                                     Divide both sides by -1

y = -17

Subtract and write out in minutes and seconds 87 seconds from 100 seconds
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

  00:13  mm:ss

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 60 seconds in a minute. This fact can be used to convert the time period(s) to minutes and seconds either before or after you do the subtraction.

<h3>Difference</h3>

It is often convenient to do arithmetic with all of the numbers having the same units. Here, we are given two values in seconds and asked for their difference.

  100 s - 87 s = (100 -87) s = 13 s

The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.

<h3>Conversion</h3>

If you like, the numbers can be converted to minutes and seconds before the subtraction. Since there are 60 seconds in a minute, the number of minutes is found by dividing seconds by 60. The remainder is the number of seconds that will be added to the time in minutes:

  87 seconds = ⌊87/60⌋ minutes + (87 mod 60) seconds

  = 1 minute 27 seconds

  100 seconds = ⌊100/60⌋ minutes + (100 mod 60) seconds

  = 1 minute 40 seconds

Then the difference is found in the same way we would find a difference involving different variables. (A unit can be treated as though it were a variable.)

  (1 min 40 s) -(1 min 27 s) = (1 -1 min) + (40-27 s) = 0 min 13 s

The difference between the two time periods is 0 minutes and 13 seconds.
