In standard form, slope is always the negative of the x coefficient over the y coefficient.
If you dont want to have that memorized, you can use algebra to get the equation of the line into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)
Set it equal to y
2x - 5y = 6
2x = 5y + 6
2x - 6 = 5y
(2/5)x - 6/5 = y
Now it is in slope intercept form. In slope intercept form, the coefficient multiplying with x is the slope of the line. Therefore, the slope equals 2/5.
Answer:
sad life
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x,y,z be those numbers.
x+y+z = 12
Since x,y,z are consecutive: y=x+1, and z = x+2
Let's replace y and z by their new values:
x+x+1+x+2=12
3x+3=12
You subtract 3 from each side to get variables on a side, and numbers on the other:
3x=9
You divide both sides by 3:
x=3
y=x+1 = 3+1 = 4
z=x+2 = 3+2 = 5
So the numbers are 3; 4 and 5.
You can re-check your answers (very important):
3+4+5 = 12
3;4;5 are consecutive numbers.

Answer: n < -5 or n > 5
Step-by-step explanation: Solve for n
Answer:
a). Distance from the surface of miner elevator=532 feet, Distance from the surface of equipment elevator=60 feet
b). The miner elevator is deeper since it is 472 feet deeper than the equipment elevator
Step-by-step explanation:
Equipment elevator speed=4 feet per second
Miner elevator=14 feet per second
Total time of miner elevator=(23+15)=38 seconds
Total time of equipment elevator=15 seconds
a). Distance from the surface of each elevator
Distance from the surface of miner elevator=Miner Speed×Miner Time
Distance=(14×38)=532 feet
Distance from the surface of equipment elevator=Equipment Speed×Equipment Time
Distance=(15×4)=60 feet
b). Which elevator is deeper
Distance from the surface of miner elevator=532 feet
Distance from the surface of equipment elevator= 60 feet
Difference=(532-60)=472 feet
The miner elevator is deeper since it is 472 feet deeper than the equipment elevator
