7 0

The answer is b = 50.

The general form of quadratic equation is
ax² + bx + c = 0.

To write the equation 0.3x² + 5x - 7 = 0 in standard form, you must get rid of decimals. To do that, multiply the equation by 10:
10 * (0.3x² + 5x - 7) = 10 * 0
10 * 0.3x² + 10 * 5x - 10 * 7 = 0
3x² + 50x - 70 = 0

Now compare this equation with the general formula:
ax² + bx + c = 0
3x² + 50x - 70 = 0

Therefore, b = 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

do the inverse of -2/3 what is 3/2

and now sole the equation of y+8 = 3/2(x-4)

distribute 3/2 ---> y+8 = 3/2x - 8

subtract 8 from both sided getting you y=3/2x-14

Identify the slope, m. This can be done by calculating the slope between two known points of the line using the slope formula.

Find the y-intercept. This can be done by substituting the slope and the coordinates of a point (x, y) on the line in the slope-intercept formula and then solve for b.
