What is the equation of the graphed line written in standard form?

First you'll find the equation of the graphed line in slope-intercept form, y = mx+b, and then from there we'll convert it into standard form, ax+by = c.

To find the slope of the line you could either use the two points on the line or just look and see.

Start from the point farther down, the point on (5,0). Look and see how many units it takes to go up/down to where the point on (0,3) is.

If it goes up, then you are at a positive slope so far. If it goes down, then you are at a negative slope so far. It takes 3 units UP (positive) to go onto the line that (0,3) is on.

Now see how far does it take to go left/right to where the point on (0,3) is. If you have to go left, that means you have a negative; if it goes right then you have a positive. It takes 5 units LEFT (negative) to where (0,3) is.

A positive (up) and a negative (left) make a negative, so your slope is how many units it took to go vertically/how many units it took to go horizontally.

Your slope is -3/5.

Now to solve for b, or the y-intercept, you can look on the graph to see where the point lies on the y-axis (vertical). The point lies on 3 on the y-axis, so your y-intercept is 3.

Since you have the slope and can see the y-intercept of the graphed line, you can make the equation y = mx+b by plugging in -3/5 for the slope and plugging in 3 for b (y-intercept).

y = (-3/5)x+(3)

Remove the parentheses: y = -3/5x+3.

Now to convert from slope-intercept form into standard form, you will have to move everything to the left side and leave only b, or 3.

Add -3/5x to both sides.

3/5x+y = 3

You can't have a fraction in standard form, so multiply everything in the equation by 5.

3x+5y = 15

Answer is:

C. 3x+5y = 15

Justin, Cam, and Ben are playing a board game where exactly one player will win. Ben estimates that Justin has a 20%, percent ch
stira [4]

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

If Justin has a 20% chance and Cam has a 50% chance that adds up to 70%

But you need to get to 100% so all you do is

70 - 100 = 30

30%

Explain how an estimate helps you place the decimal point when multiplying 3.9 × 5.3
4vir4ik [10]
An estimate helps you place the decimal point when multiplying because if you find out how many decimals there are and once you are done doing you estimated multiplication you put two decimal points after that.


Hope I helped some what and didn't make you confused.
