Answer:

Equation of the line is,

y = x/3 + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,a line passing through (-6, 5) and having a slope of 1/3

Points to remember

The equation of a line passing through the point (x₁, y₁) with slope m is given by

(y - y1)/(x - x₁) = m

<u>To find the equation of line</u>

here x₁ = -6, y₁ = 5 and m = 1/3

(y - y1)/(x - x₁) = m

(y - 5)/(x - - 6) = 1/3

(y - 5)/(x + 6) =1/3

y = x/3 + 7

Answer:

y = 1/3 x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given; the line is passing through, (-6,5) and the slope is 1/3

We can get its equation;

We would take, a point (x,y) and the given point (-6,5)

Therefore; Since slope = Δy/Δx

Then;

(5-y)/ (-6-x) = 1/3

3(5-y) = -6 -x

15 - 3y = -6 - x

we get;

3y = 6 + x + 15

3y = x + 21

Therefore;

<u>y = 1/3 x + 7</u>

Solve each equation for the unknown <br>1. 5 + y = 7.<br>2. 3.8 = a + 2.5<br>5. + p = 9 1/3 ​
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

1. 5 + y = 7

⇒ y = 7 - 5

⇒<u>y = 5</u>

2.  3.8 = a + 2.5

⇒ a = 2.5 - 3.8

⇒ <u>a = -1.3</u>

3. 5 + p = 9 1/3 ​

⇒ p = 9 1/3 - 5

⇒ p = 28/3 - 5

⇒ p = 28/3 - 15/3

⇒ p = 13/3

⇒<u> </u><u>p = 4 1/3</u>

The janitor at a school discovered a leak in a pipe. The janitor found that it was leaking at a rate of 11 fl oz per hour. How f
netineya [11]
Here's what you need to know in order to answer this:

       1 gallon  =  128 fl oz
and      
       1 day  =  24 hours. 
    
Use those facts to invent fractions equal to ' 1 '.
Then use those to change the units of the "11 fl oz per hour".
You can multiply them ... since their value is ' 1 ', they won't
change the value of the "11 fl oz per hour", only the units.

                  (11 fl oz/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (1 gal / 128 fl oz)

               = (11 x 24 x 1 / 128)  (fl-oz - hr - gal) / (hr - da - fl-oz)

               =         2.0625                        gal/da
