Graph the line passing through (−2,5) whose slope is m=1/5

Mathematics

Answer:

In order to graph the line, you need to first find the y-intercept (aka 'b').

Equation: y=mx+b

Given the two points and slope, we can plug in and find for b

5 = 1/5(-2) + b

5 = -2/5 + b

b = 5 + 2/5

b = 27/5 or 5.4

So your final equation will be: y=1/5x+27/5

Lastly you just need to plot the 'b = 5.4'  on the y-axis and place the slope as 1 over 5.

Hello there! :)

Given:

x-coordinate of point = -2

y-coordinate of point = 5

Slope, or "m" = 1/5

Substitute in these values into slope-intercept formula (y = mx+b)

5 = 1/5(-2) + b

5 = -2/5 + b

25/5 = -2/5 + b

27/5 = b

Rewrite the equation:

y = 1/5x + 27/5

Graph the equation using a graphing utility:

Zolol [24]

Answer:

  186 °F

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference is found by subtracting the smaller from the larger:

  136 -(-50) = 136 +50 = 186

The difference between the two temperatures is 186 °F.

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is 2

The equation is y=2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit price or unit rate is $2

Let y represent the price of tomatoes, then the price of x tomatoes is

y=2x dollars.

This represents a direct variation.

This equation is of the form y=kx, where k=2 is the constant of proportionality.

You are a member of a darts team and they have won £1750 prize money in a competition. £70 is to be saved for a celebration part
grandymaker [24]
Most of the information's that are required for solving this question is already given in the question. It is important to check them minutely before trying to solve the problem in hand.
Amount of prize money won by the darts team = 1750 pounds
The amount of money that needs to be saved = 70 pounds
Then
Amount of money remaining after savings = (1750 - 70) pounds
                                                                     = 1680 pounds
The number of  team members in the darts team = 14
So
The amount of money
that each members of the darts team gets = 1680/14
                                                                     = 70 pounds
From the above deduction we can easily conclude that each member of the darts teams will get an amount of 70 pounds.
