The y intercept is 1/3. the function is in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) where m represents the slope and b represents the y-intercept. making b=1/3, meaning 1/3 is the y-intercept of the function

Answer:

The y-intercept is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given is in slope-intercept form. Recall that in slope-intercept form:

$f(x)=mx+b$

<em>m </em>is the slope while <em>b</em> is the y-intercept.

Therefore, -2/9 would be the slope while 1/3 would be the y-intercept.

You are trying to recreate flubber because you are obsessed with that movie and you thought it was the coolest. you take 70% sli

Let $x$ be the amount (gal) of the 40% slime solution you end up using. You want to end up with 120 gal of the 50% solution, so that you would use $120-x$ gal of the 70% solution.

You want the final solution to consist of 50% slime, or 60 gal of slime. Each gal of the 40% solution contributes 0.4 gal of slime, while each gal of the 70% solution contributes 0.7 gal of slime. This means

$0.4x+0.7(120-x)=0.5\cdot120=60$
