Hey there! :)
To find an equation of a line that passes through (5, 1) and has a slope of 2, we'll need to plug our known variables into the slope-intercept equation.
Slope-intercept equation : y = mx + b ; where m=slope, b=y-intercept
Since we're already given the slope, all we really need to do is find the y-intercept.
We can do this by plugging our known values into the slope-intercept equation.
y = mx + b
Since we're trying to find "b," we need to plug in "y, m, x" into our formula.
(1) = (2)(5) + b
Simplify.
1 = 10 + b
Subtract 10 from both sides.
1 - 10 = b
Simplify.
-9 = b
So, our y-intercept is 9!
Now, we can very simply plug our known values into slope-intercept form.
y = mx + b
y = 2x - 9 → final answer
~Hope I helped!~
Answer:
B. 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Make 9 an improper fraction, then multiply by -5/6.
-5/6 times 9/1 = -45/6.
-45/6 cannot be simplified, so you make it a mixed number.
-7 1/2.
Add the 7 to -7 1/2 and that cancels out to 1/2
Answer:
625
Step-by-step explanation:
5⁴ = 5x5x5x5 = 625
Answer: 14 gallons of gasoline.
Step-by-step explanation:
given data:
25(x + 3) = 424
where x is the number of gallon of gasoline needed to purchase.
Solution.
25(x + 3) = 424
first we open the bracket
25x + 75 = 424
collect like terms
25x = 424 – 75
25x = 349
divide both sides by 25
25x/25 = 349/25
x = 13.96
x = 14
mathew needs to get 14 gallons of gasoline.
The correct answe would be C...
