5 0

Answer:

A. x = 7

B. x = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

A.  5/x = 30/42

5/x = 5/7

5 = 5/7 x

5= 5x/7

5 x 7 = 5x

35 = 5x

35/5 = x

7 = x

x = 7

B.  x/8 = -12/32

x/8 = -3/8

x = - 3/8 x 8

x = -  24/8

x = -3

Hope this helps you have a gr8 day :3

If a line with a slope of -2 crosses the yaxis at (0,3) what is the equation of the line
Sliva [168]

Answer:

y=-2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that with the provided information they are given you not ust the slope of the line (-2), but also the y-intercept (the point where the line crosses the y-axis which happens when x=0).

So you can directly write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form [y=mx+b where "m" is the slope and "b" the y-value when x=0].

Such gives us:

y=-2x+3
