3w-17=-2
Move the -17 to the other side to make it a +17
3w=-2+17
Add -2 to 17
3w=15
Divide 3w and 15 by 3
3w=15
— —
3 3
The 3w then becomes w
w= 15
—
3
Divide 15 by 3
w=5

You want to buy a pet rabbit that costs ​$49. You already have ​$18 and you plan to save ​$9 per week. If w represents the numbe
kap26 [50]

18 + 9x = 49

with the use of an equation you can easily find out if 6 weeks of saving up is enough to get the rabbit.

18 + 9(6) \neq 49

9 x 6 = 54

54 + 18 = 72

you could have enough money in 4 weeks

What is m = -8; (-2, 16) in slope intercept form? :)
zimovet [89]

Answer:

y = -8x

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's look at what slope-intercept form is.

y = mx + b

m is the slope, which in this case is -8.

b is the y-intercept, which we will find later.

Now that we have identified the parts of the equation, let's plug in what we know. Use the point given for your x and y values.

y = mx + b

16 = -8(-2) + b

Let's simplify this to find b.

[multiply] 16 = 16 + b

[subtract 16] 0 = b

We now have our b-value, which is also our y-intercept. Plug in this value into the standard slope-intercept equation.

y = -8x

This is your equation.

Check this by plugging in the point again.

16 = -8(-2)

[multiply] 16 = 16

This expression is true; therefore, your answer is correct.

Hope this helps!
