Mathematics

This equation is written in <em>standard form</em>, so we need to change it into <em>slope-intercept form.</em>

<em />

3x = -y - 5

3x + y = -y + y - 5

3x + y = -5

3x - 3x + y = -5 - 3x

y = -5 - 3x

y = -3x - 5

The slope is classified as "m" in this type of equation, so, the slope is -3.

Best of Luck!

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Isolate the Y

2. once it looks like this y+3x=-5, you subtract y on both sides.

3. you get y=-3x + 5. the slope being -3.

A baker has 20 pounds of sugar. He uses 3/4 of the sugar to bake muffins. How much sugar does he have left?
arsen [322]

Hey there!

We can find the answer to this by finding how much is 3/4 of the sugar and subtracting that from the 20 pounds of sugar he started with.

3/4 in decimal form is 0.75, so we can multiply 20 by 0.75 to get 3/4 of 20.

0.75 x 20 = 15

This means 3/4 of the sugar is 15 pounds.

Now we can subtract that from the original 20 pounds he started with.

20 - 15 = 5

He has 5 pounds of sugar left.

Hope this helps!
