Solve for y from the standard form 3x - 8y = 24

Mathematics

Answer:

y = 3/8 x -3

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 8y = 24

Solving for y

Subtract 3x from each side

3x-3x - 8y =-3x+ 24

-8y = -3x+24

Divide each side by -8

-8y/-8 = -3x/-8 +24/-8

y = 3/8 x -3

Answer:

y=\frac{3}{8} x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for y, we want to isolate it. This means subtracting 3x from both sides:

-8y = 24 - 3x

Now, to get y, we divide both sides by -8 to get rid of the current coefficient of y:

y=\frac{24-3x}{-8} =-3+\frac{3}{8} x

Thus, the answer is y=\frac{3}{8} x-3 .

Hope this helps!

PLZZ HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
timama [110]

Answer:

explanation that will help u get ur answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope will be the same for a straight line no matter which two points you pick as you know. All you need to do is to calculate the difference in the y coordinates of the 2 points and divide that by the difference of the x coordinates of the points(rise over run). That will give you the slope.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point ( − 5 , − 1 ) (−5,−1) and is parallel to the line 4 x − 5 y = 10 4
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line is expressed in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where m represents the slope

c represents the intercept.

The given equation is

4x−5y = 10

5y = 4x - 10

y = 4x/5 - 2

Comparing with the slope intercept form,

The slope,m = 4/5

The line that is parallel to the given line passes through the point (- 5,- 1)

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line that is parallel to the given line is 4/5

To determine the intercept c, we will substitute m = 4/5, x = - 1 and x = - 5 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes

- 5 = 4/5 × - 1 + c

- 5 = - 4/5 + c

c = - 5 + 4/5 = (- 25 + 4)/5 = - 21/5

The equation becomes

y = 4x/5 - 21/5
