The x intercept of a line is <5 and the y-intercept of the line is -2. what is the equation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

y = (2/5)x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that your x-intercept is (5,0) and that your y-intercept is (0,-2).

Going from (0, -2) to (5,0), x increases by 5 and y increases by 2.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = 2/5.

The equation of this line is thus y = (2/5)x - 2.

What are the coordinates of point P on the coordinate grid below?
Alik [6]

If you look carefully at the grid, you will see that each increment is by 1/8.

That means that for the x-coordinate of P, you can count from -4/8 to get -5/8.

For the y-coordinate, you can count up from 0 to get 3/8.

Then, the answer is (-5/8, 3/8), or the third answer.

Solve 5x(m+n) using the distributive property
Genrish500 [490]

Answer: 5xm+5xn

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is necessary to remember the following:

1) The Distributive Property states the following:

a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\a(b-c)=ab-ac

2) The multiplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-

Knowing this, and having the following expression given in the exercise:

5x(m+n)

You can apply the Distributive property multiplying m and n, which are inside the parentheses, by 5x.

So, you get the following result:

=(5x)(m)+(5x)(n)=5xm+5xn

Please help me with these questions.
Debora [2.8K]
4. k less than 3.5, so a number k is being taken away from 3.5:
The answer is 3.5-k

5. the sum of g and h, reduced by 11, so you need a set of parentheses to write this one: (g+h)-11

6. 5 less than y, plus g, so do a combination of the strategies used in the previous two problems and you will get: (y-5)+g

7. 5 less than the sum of y and g, you are taking away 5 from the sum of two numbers, y and g, so: (y+g)-5

Hope this helps :-)
