Y=6x/5 +27 find y-intercept and slope

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

General equation of a line is given by y = mx +c, where m is the gradient /slope, c is the intercept. To find for the intercept on y- axis, put x = 0.
$y = \frac{6(0)}{5 } + 27 \\ y = \frac{0}{5} + 27 \\ y = 27 \\ therefore \: the \: intercept \: on \: y \: is \: 27 \\$
By comparison,
$y = mx + \: c \\ y = \frac{6}{5} x \: +27 \\ m = \frac{6}{5 \: } \: \\ hence \: slope \: is \: \frac{6}{5}$

Matt had 5 library books. He checked out 1 additional book every week without retuening any books. Whats the matching equation

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

The equation would be y = x + 5, in which x is the number of weeks and y is the number of books he has.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know this because even at 0 weeks, he still has 5 books. Therefore we put this as the constant at the end. Then we can add the number of weeks since the rate is one book per week.

Is the distance a baseball travels in the air after being hit a discrete random variable, a continuous random variable, or not

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer: a continuous random variable

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Can you count the distance it traveled?</em></u> You can't, so it couldn't be discrete because you can count discrete variables.

<u><em>Can you measure the distance it traveled? </em></u>You sure can, that makes it a continuous random variable.

<u><em>Do you know the exact distance it's going to travel?</em></u><u> </u>You won't, therefore it's a random variable since you don't know the value beforehand.

Janine is packing carrots. Each large box holds 20 2-pound bags of carrots. If janine has 800 bags of carrots, how many boxes ca

grigory [225]

This is a division problem:

Each box holds 20 bags.

800 bags / 20 bags per box = # of boxes

40 boxes are needed.
