Hello!

To the value of b, or the y-intercept, we need to substitute an ordered pair/point into the given equation.

Since we are given two points, we can use those two points to find two different equations.

Remember that ordered pairs are written as (x, y).

A(-2, 4)

y = -3x + b

4 = -3(-2) + b

4 = 6 + b (subtract 6 from both sides)

-2 = b

A) Therefore, the equation of the first ordered pair is y = -3x - 2.

B(5, 2)

2 = -3(5) + b

2 = -15 + b (add 15 to both sides)

17 = b

B) The equation of the second ordered pair is y= -3x + 17.

<u>Final answers</u>:

A) y = -3x - 2
B) y = -3x + 17

Joe's gas tank is 1/4 full. After he buys 6 gallons of gas, it is 5/8 full. How many gallons can Joe's tank hold?

Korolek [52]

Answer:

Amount of gas that can be hold by Joe's tank = 16 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Joe's gas tank is 1/4 full. After he buys 6 gallons of gas, it is 5/8 full. Now we need to find about how many gallons can Joe's tank hold.

So let's find change that happened after filling the gas.

Change = (5/8 full) - (1/4 full)

Change = (5/8 - 1/4) full

Change = (5/8 - 2/8) full

Change = (5 - 2)/8 full

Change = 3/8 full

So that means 3/8 full happens in 6 gallons

then 1 full will happen in 6/(3/8) gallons = 6*(8/3) gallons = 48/3 gallons = 16 gallons

So the amount of gas that can be hold by Joe's tank = 16 gallons.

natali 33 [55]

Answer: 1/3 = 33.3% or 33 ⅓%

1/9 = 11.1%

2/9 = 22.2%

8/9 = 88.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the numerator by the denominator. Multiply the quotient by 100 to change the decimal to a percentage.

All of these are repeating decimals, so it may be required to keep at least one decimal place in the percentage, depending on how precise the calculation must be.
