Answer:

y= 2x - 5 equation has a slope of 2 and a y intercept of -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The slope = 2

Intercept of y = -5

To Find:

The equation of the line = ?

Solution:

The slope-intercept form of a line is a way of writing the equation of a line so that the slope of the line and the y-intercept are easily identifiable. The slope is the steepness of the line, and the y-intercept is the place the line crosses the y-axis.

The equation of the line in the slope intercept form is

y = mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

Now substituting the given values we get

y = (2)x + (-5)

y= 2x - 5

Fantom [35]

Answer:

$(B)\sqrt{21}\\(C)\sqrt{13+8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression $(13 + 8) ^{1/2}$

Using law of indices: $a^{1/2}=\sqrt{a}$

$(13 + 8) ^{1/2}=\sqrt{13+8}$

Also:13+8=21

Therefore:

$(13 + 8) ^{1/2}=21^{1/2}\\=\sqrt{21}$

9 and 5/12 - 3 and 2/3

lana [24]

Recall to always convert the mixed fractions to "improper" fractions first,

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{9\frac{5}{12}}\implies \cfrac{9\cdot 12+5}{12}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{113}{12}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{2}{3}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 3+2}{3}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{11}{3}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{113}{12}-\cfrac{11}{3}\impliedby \textit{clearly our LCD is 12}\implies \cfrac{113-(4)11}{12}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{113-44}{12}\implies \cfrac{69}{12}\implies 5\frac{9}{12}$
