If you change the slope in the equation y= 5x + 7 to y = 2x + 7 how will its graph change?

If we see an equation in the form y=mx+c (where m and c are just some numbers), but the important thing is that the left hand side is "y" and not "2y" or "3y", then the m is the slope.

So y=5x+7 has a slope of 5 (the number before the x)
And y=2x+7 has a slope of 2 (the number before the x)

So as you move from left to right, the one with greater slope will increase y value faster. Just like if you were climbing two mountains. If you went for 1 kilometre up a really steep mountain, you would be higher up than if you went for 1 kilometre up a less steep mountain.

Another way of saying this is that by changing an equation from  slope 5 (steep) to slope=2 (less steep), then "It will increase at a slower rate than before"

Dana needs 6 meters of ribbon to make bows. She has 160 centimeters of ribbon. Does Dana have enough ribbon to make bows? Explai

No; to make a bow, you need 6 meters and 6 meters = 600 centimeters. If Dana only has 160 centimeters of ribbon, bows cannot be made because 600 cm is more than 160 cm.

A scientist mixes water (containing no salt) with a solution that contains 35% salt. She wants to obtain 105 ounces of a mixture
dedylja [7]

Answer:

90

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with changing 35% and 30% to a decimal.

35% = .35%

30% = .30%

Then multiply 105 by .30%. ( but don't put the percent sign in the calculator when multiplying)

105 x .30% = 31.5

Then you want to divide 31.5 by .35%

31.5 /  .35% = 90

Simplify:2 1/3(4 1/4÷2)
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

4\frac{23}{24}

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to simplify:

2\frac{1}{3}(4\frac{1}{4}\div 2)

We convert to improper fraction to get:

\frac{7}{3}(\frac{17}{4}\div 2)

We now deal with the parenthesis by multiplying with the reciprocal of 2.

\frac{7}{3}(\frac{17}{4}\times \frac{1}{2} )

This gives:

\frac{7}{3}(\frac{17}{8})

We multiply to get:

\frac{7}{3}(\frac{17}{8})

This simplfies to:

\frac{119}{24}

We write as mixed number

4\frac{23}{24}

Andy bought 4 hamburgers snd 2 milkshakes for $13.50. Danny bought 3 hamburgers and 1 milkshake for $9.25. What cost of a hambur
Molodets [167]

A hamburger costs $2.5 and a milkshake costs $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Form equations from the given details. Let cost of 1 hamburger be H and cost of 1 milkshake be M.

   4H + 2M = 13.50 ------ (1)

&  3H + 1M =   9.25 ------ (2)

  • Step 2: Multiply eq(2) with 2 to make coefficients of M equal.

   6H + 2M = 18.50 ------- (3)

  • Step 3: Subtract eq(3) from eq(1)

⇒ - 2H = - 5

⇒ H = $2.5

  • Step 4: Substitute value of H in eq(2) to find M.

⇒ 3 × 2.5 + M = 9.25

⇒ 7.5 + M = 9.25

⇒ M = $1.75
