Answer:

slope: -5/3
y-intercept: 2
x-intercept: 6/5 = 1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the slope is perhaps easiest done by solving for y.

5x -6 = -3y . . . . subtract 3

y = -5/3x +2 . . . divide by -3

This is slope-intercept form, so we can see both the slope (the coefficient of x, -5/3) and the y-intercept (the constant, +2).

To find the x-intercept, we set y=0 and solve for x. This might be most easily done using the original equation:

5x -3 = 0 +3 . . . . set y = 0

5x = 6 . . . . . . . . . add 3 to get the x-term by itself

x = 6/5 = 1.2 . . . . divide by the coefficient of x. This is the x-intercept.

Slope = -5/3

y-intercept = 2

x-intercept = 6/5

A house and a lot cost more than $89,000. The house cost $1000 more than seven times the cost of the lot. How much does the lot

tatyana61 [14]

7x+1000+x=89000

7x+x+1000-1000=89000-1000
8x=88000

8x/8=88000/8
x=$11000

A base of a parallelogram is on the x-axis and the origin is located at the left endpoint of that base. Three consecutive vertic

nlexa [21]

We are given the description of a diagram where the base of a parallelogram lies on the x-axis with the left vertex on the origin. We are also given the three consecutive coordinates of the vertices which are
(h, j ), (0, 0), and (k, 0)
Based on the coordinates, the point (h, j) is j units from the y-axis
