Make it: y = mx + b form
b = y intercept
3y = -8x - 24
Divide by 3
y = -8/3x - 8
Answer: y intercept is -8
Yah same you can’t answer without a picture
To answer this item, we let x be the first positive integer. Then, the second would be x+1. Their reciprocals would be 1/x and 1/(x+1). Then, the equation that would best represent the scenario above is,
1/x + 1/(x+1) = 17/72
Solving the equation above,
((x+1) + x) / (x)(x+1) = 17/72
If we take the numerators of both sides of the equation,
(x+1) + x = 17
The value of x from the equation is 8 and x+1 would be 9. Thus, the answer would be 8 and 9.
There are 3 different possibilities for cones and 5 flavors of yoghurt.
You would do 3*5 to calculate the sample space, which is 15.
