Answer:

b=-19

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that one of the solutions is x=-4/5

That is a solution to x. So if we plug in (-4/5) into the x in the equation, then it should equal 0.

5(-4/5)^2+b(4/5)+12=0

Now, just solve for b.

5(16/25)+b(4/5)+12=0

(16/5)+(4/5)b+12=0

(76/5)+(4/5)b=0

(4/5)b=-(76/5)

b=-19

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

There are 28 dolls, 32 balls,  20 cars   for 80 total toys

Step-by-step explanation:

dolls : balls: cars: total

7           8          5    (7+8+5)

7           8           5        20

We have a total of  80  

80/20 = 4

We need to multiply each number by 4

dolls : balls: cars: total

7*4     8*4     5*4      20*4

28       32      20       80


There are 28 dolls, 32 balls,  20 cars   for 80 total toys

Which is true about the slope of a line?
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of all lines in quadrant 1 is positive. FALSE

The slope of a line does not depend on the quadrant.

The slope of <u>all lines</u> that pass through the origin is undefined.FALSE

The slope of some lines that pass trough the origin are undefined ( lines that are vertical have undefined slope)

The larger the slope, the longer the line.FALSE

The lines do not get longer or shorter because they go to infinity in both directions.

The larger the magnitude of the slope value, the steeper the line. TRUE

The larger the absolute value of the slope the steeper the slope.
