Answer:

y=-\frac{5}{3}x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given 2 points, (-3, 7) and (6, -8), and we are asked to write it in slope-intercept form. To do this, lets first find the slope. To find the slope, we can use the slope formula.

The slope formula is:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are points.

Lets plug in (-3, 7) for (x₁, y₁) and (6, -8) for (x₂, y₂).

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{-8-7}{6-(-3)}=\frac{-15}{9}=-\frac{5}{3}

So now we have found the slope. Lets plug in the slope and one of the points into the equation for point-slope form and then solve for slope-intercept form. I am going to use the point (-3, 7).

y-7=-\frac{5}{3}(x-(-3))

Distribute the -5/3 on the right side.

y-7=-\frac{5}{3}x-5

Add 7 to both sides.

y=-\frac{5}{3}x+2

And now we have the equation in slope-intercept form.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.

Answer:

12x + 18y + 6z + 4x - 4z

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression : 3(4x + 6y + 2z) + 4(x – z)

To eliminate the parenthesis ; we use the distributive property :

3(4x + 6y + 2z) + 4(x – z) becomes ;

3*4x + 3*6y + 3*2z + 4*x + 4*-z

12x + 18y + 6z + 4x - 4z

Hence,

12x + 4x + 18y + 6z - 4z

16x + 18y + 2z

Answer:

1/ 8 pounds of dog food

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

7/8 pounds of dog food shared equally into 7 containers ;

Number of dog food in each container will be :

Total dog food / Number of containers

(7/8) ÷ 7

(7 /8) * 1/ 7

7 / 56

= 1/8 pounds of dog food
