What is the slope of the line whose equation is 2x-3y=5

Mathematics

Zarrin [17]3 years ago

Answer:

\large\boxed{\text{The slope}\ m=\dfrac{2}{3}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the standard form of a line:

2x-3y=5

Convert to the slope-intercept form:

2x-3y=5          <em>subtract 2x from both sides</em>

-3y=-2x+5        <em>divide both sides by (-3)</em>

y=\dfrac{-2}{-3}x+\dfrac{5}{-3}\\\\y=\dfrac{2}{3}x=-\dfrac{5}{3}\to m=\dfrac{2}{3}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

subtract 2x from both sides of the equation

-3y=-2x+5

Divide each by -3 and simplify

- 3y/-3=-2x/-3+5/-3

reduce and cancel the common numbers

move the negative over from the denominator

-(-1*y)= - 2x/-3 +5/-3

simplify

- -2x/3

multiply  2x/3 by 1

y=2x/3+5/-3

move the negative in front of fraction

y=2x/3 -5/3

slope intercept form

y=2/3 x -5/3

the slope is 2/3

A ferry departs from a port along the Sands River at 10:00 am. The ferry travels at a speed of 15 mph in still water and returns
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

Speed of river's current = 5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'd' be the distance covered  

 Let x be the speed of the rivers current

Speed upstream = 15-x

speed downstream = 15+x

Time = distance / speed

time upstream = \frac{d}{15-x}

time downstream = \frac{d}{15+x}

the ferry trip upstream takes twice as long as its return trip downstream

\frac{d}{15-x}= \frac{2d}{15+x}

divide both sides by d

\frac{1}{15-x}= \frac{2}{15+x}

cross multiply

15+x= 2(15-x)

15+x= 30-2x

Add 2x on both sideds

15+3x= 30

subtract 15 from both sides and divide by 3

3x=15

x=5

Speed of river's current = 5 mph

Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal.
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Option B) y = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal.

The attached image shows the intersection of transversal and the angles.

As clear from the image, the given pair of angles form alternate interior angles.

If two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of alternate interior angles are congruent or equal

Thus, y = 50 degree
