A faucet in a large tank can fill the tank in 12 hours. However, there is a hose in the tank which would be able to empty the ta

It would take the faucet 18 hours to fill the tank because 18/12=1.5.  That means it will be 1.5 times slower to fill the tank up with the hose on.  1.5*12=18.

What is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through (5, -4) and has a slope of 34?
Alla [95]
One way to find the slope-intercept form is to plug the given values into point-slope form, y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1}), where x_{1} and y_{1} are the coordinate points and m is the slope. Then, you solve for y.

y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1})   Plug in the values
  y - (-4) = 34 (x - 5)         Fix the minus negative four
     y + 4 = 34 (x - 5)         Use the Distributive Property
     y + 4 = 34x - 170        Subtract 4 from both sides
           y = 34x - 174

The slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through (5, -4) and has a slope of 34 is y = 34x - 174.
