<em>Note:</em>
<em>Your first question is missing the y-intercept, so I am solving the 2nd question. You would still get your concept clear because the procedure to solve each of the questions is the same.</em>
Question 2
Answer:
The equation in the standard form is:
Please also check the attached graph.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the equation in the standard form is
Ax + By = C
where x and y are variables and A, B and C are constants
Given
To determine
- Write the equation in the standard form
We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation

where
In our case:
substituting m = -2/3 and y-intercept b = -4 in the slope-intercept of the line equation
y = mx+b
y = -2/3x + (-4)
y = -2/3x - 4
Writing the equation in the standard form
2/3x + y = -4
Therefore, the equation in the standard form is:
Please also check the attached graph.
There is only one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Write a proportion:
3 buckets / 1 gallon = 1 bucket / x gallons
Cross multiply and solve:
3x = 1
x = 1/3
You need 1/3 of a gallon of water.
Answer:
The y-intercept would be 4
