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

Use the commutative property of multiplication to identify which expression is equivalent to 6(2)(x).

The commutative property is when you change the order but not the answer. To better understand what they are asking you, let's let x=1- 6 * 2 * 1=12; Answer A wouldn't be right because there are no 6,2, or x's. Remember you just change the ORDER not the GROUPING so Answer B is wrong too. Now Answer C and Answer D are left. Now you just need to look at the signs. 6(2) just means 6 TIMES 2 so pick the option with multiplication. So your answer is C. Hope I helped!

PLEASE HELP!! How many solutions can be found for the equation −4x − 11 = 2(x − 3x) + 13?

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer: $No~Solution$ $s$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's factor then solve to find the complex solutions.

Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the equal sign from both sides of the equation : $-4x-11=2(x-3x)+13$

Equations that are never true:

$1.1 ~~~~ Solve : -24 = 0$

This equation has no solution.

A non-zero constant never equals zero.

Therefore your answer is $No~Solution$

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find c!!!!

Troyanec [42]

A^2 + b^2 = c^2
6^2 + 8^2 = c^2
36 + 8^2 = c^2
36 + 64 = c^2
100 = c^2
√100 = c
10 = c

hope this helped, pls mark brainliest :)

Assume that a company sold 5.75 million motorcycles and 3.5 million cars in the year 2010. The growth in the sale of motorcycles

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Final answer is approx 6.644 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a company sold 5.75 million motorcycles and 3.5 million cars in the year 2010. The growth in the sale of motorcycles is 16% every year and that of cars is 25% every year.

So we can use growth formula:

$A=P\left(1+r\right)^t$
