Answer:

\large\boxed{y=-\dfrac{2}{5}x-5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>

<em>b</em><em> - y-intercept</em>

<em />

We have

m=-\dfrac{2}{5},\ b=-5

Substitute:

y=-\dfrac{2}{5}x+(-5)}=-\dfrac{2}{5}x-5

During a four-week period, you worked the following hours: Week 1- 363 /8 hr; Week 2- 411 /4 hr; Week 3- 401 /2 hr; Week 4- 383
Dafna11 [192]
The average number of hours can be calculated using the following rule:
average number of hours = total number of hours / total number of weeks

total number of hours = 36 3/8 + 41 1/4 + 40 1/2 + 38 3/8 = 313/2 hours
total number of weeks = 4 weeks

Average number of hours per week = (313/2) / (4) = 39 1/8 hour

Based on the above calculations, the correct answer is:
C. 39 1/8 hour

Write Y+2=1/3x in standard form
solong [7]

The standard form of a line is in the form

Ax + By = C

A, B and C are integers, and A is positive. Let's start with multiplying the whole equation by 3 to get rid of denominators:

3y+6=x

Subtract 3y from both sides:

6=x-3y

Which of course is equivalent to

x-3y=6

Which is the standard form, given the coefficients A=1, B=-3, C=6.
