Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

m = the slope

b = y-intercept.

In this problem,

m = 3/5

b = ?

So far y = 3/5x + b

Let's plug the point (-3, -1) into our slope equation.

-1 = 3/5(-3) + b

Simplify the right side.

-1 = -9/5 + b

Add 9/5 to both sides.

4/5 = b

The equation is: y = 3/5x + 4/5

Answer choice A is correct.

Here's an example

<span>Simplify by collecting like terms: 4(<span>x2y  </span>+ 7y) – 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 10y</span>

 

<span>A) −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y</span>

 

<span>B) 4<span>x2y + </span>11y – 8<span>yx2 – </span>16y</span>

 

<span>C) 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2</span></span>

 

<span>D) 4<span>x2y </span>– 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 3y</span>

 

<span>A) −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y </span>

<span>Correct. 4(<span>x2y  </span>+ 7y) – 5<span>y(3x2 </span>– y) – 10y = 4<span>x2y + </span>28y – 15<span>yx2</span> + 5<span>y2 – </span>10y = 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2</span> + 5<span>y2 </span>= −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>B) 4<span>x2y + </span>11y – 8<span>yx2 – </span>16y </span>

<span>Incorrect. The 4 is distributed to both terms in the parentheses by multiplying each term by 4 resulting in 28y, not 11y. The −5y is similarly distributed to each term in the parentheses, resulting in −15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2. </span>The correct answer is −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>C) 4<span>x2y + </span>18y – 15<span>yx2 + </span>5<span>y2</span></span>

<span>Incorrect. This polynomial can be further simplified by combining the like terms 4<span>x2y </span>and −15<span>yx2. </span>The order of the variables in a term does not matter. The correct answer is </span>

−<span>11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

 

<span>D) 4<span>x2y </span>– 5y(3<span>x2 </span>– y) – 3y </span>

<span>Incorrect. Before combining like terms, you must distribute to clear the parentheses. The correct answer is −11x2y + 5<span>y2 </span>+ 18y.</span>

OLga [1]
First, take half of the coefficient of 18x then square it.

18 / 2 = 9
9^2 = 81

So, D. 81 is the answer.

find two consecutive integers such that ten more than twice the smaller is seven less than three times the larger
Radda [10]
This is how I would work it out:

1st no. = x+1                 2x+10=3(x+1)-7
2nd no. = x                    2x+10=3x-4
                                              x=14   

1st no. is 15; 2nd no. is 14 

To check: 28+10=38; three times the larger is 45; and 38 is 7 less than 45.
