What is the slope and y intercept of -2x +3y=-9

Mathematics
1 answer:
attashe74 [19]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

m = 2/3

b = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Rearrange the equation to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b).

x and y are points on the graph.

m is the slope.

b is the y-intercept.

Isolate "y". This means separating it from the other numbers.

-2x +3y = -9

-2x + 2x +3y = -9 + 2x    Add 2x to both sides

3y = 2x - 9

3y/3 = 2x/3 - 9/3      Divide both sides by 3

y = 2x/3 - 9/3      Simplify

y = (2/3)x - 3

Think about which numbers and "m" and "b" now that the equation is in y = mx + b. Include the plus and minus signs.

m = 2/3

b = -3

How do I find b in y=mx+b?​
Ainat [17]

Answer:

In the equation y = mx + b for a straight line, the number m is called the slope of the line. Let x = 0, then y = m • 0 + b, so y = b. The number b is the coordinate on the y-axis where the graph crosses the y-axis.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The first term of the sequence is -120.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the "nth" term of a geometric sequence is shown below:

an = a0*r^(n-1)

Where an is the nth term, r is the ratio and n is the position of the term on the sequence. For this problem we want to find what is the initial term, a0, so we will isolate it in the formula as shown below:

a0*r^(n-1) = an

a0 = an/[r^(n-1)]

We then apply the data given to us

a0 = 31.45728/[-0.8^(7-1)]

a0 = 31.45728/[-0.8^6] =31.45728 /-0.262144= -120

The first term of the sequence is -120.

Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. tan 12 degrees= ten over (x)
Lorico [155]
Tan(12)=-0.6358599287. That means -0.6358599287 = 10/x so you can swap the x to the other side to make x = 10/-0.6358599287 Which equals -15.7 rounded to the nearest tenth.
