Answer:

Slope - 0.86

Y-Intercept - (0, -2800)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is the rate at which the x value is increasing, in the form of y = mx + b. B would represent the Y-intercept, as that's the value of x when y is equal to 0.

15. Construct the slope-intercept form equation of the line passing through (-5,23) and (10,-5).
Radda [10]

Answer:

15<em>y</em> = -28 <em>x</em> + 205.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept  form of equation is <em>y = mx + c</em> where m is slope and c is the y intercept.

Now slope of line passing through points (-5, 23) and (10, -5):

m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} } = \frac{-5 -23}{10 + 5} = \frac{-28}{15}

Now equation of line:

<em> y = mx + c</em>

substituting the value of m in above expression,

y = -\frac{28}{15} x + c

Now, since the line is passing through the point (-5, 23) therefore, x = -5 and y = 23. By substituting these values in above equation,

23 = -\frac{28}{15} \times (-5) + c

23 = \frac{28}{3} + c

c = 23 - \frac{28}{3} = \frac{69 - 28}{3} = \frac{41}{3}

So equation of line in slope intercept form:

y = -\frac{28}{15} x + \frac{41}{3}

Further solving,

15<em>y</em> = -28 <em>x</em> + 205.

The graph shows the function y=3x-1. What are the cordinates of intercepts
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

y \: intercept  : when \: x = 0 \\ y = (3 \times 0) - 1 =  - 1  \\  =  >  (0, - 1) \\ x \: intercept : when \: y = 0 \\ 0 = 3x - 1 \\ x =  \frac{1}{3}  \\  =  > ( \frac{1}{3} ,0) \\ intercepts : (0, - 1) \: and \:  ( \frac{1}{3} ,0)

Use estimation to help you choose the correct answer.<br><br> 0.945 x 7.6 =
hoa [83]

Remark

The thing you must not do is write 7.182 as your answer. That is the exact answer found using a calculator.


What to do.

What you should do is multiply two rounded numbers together.

7.6 rounded is 8 roughly


0.945 is almost 1.


Your answer is 8*1 = 8 roughly. This skill is very handy when you are writing a test and you want to see if you've done the question correctly. It is easy to misplace a decimal or put in incorrect digits and this is a quick check on things like that.

This is homework. please help with the answer for both 11a and 11b :))
RideAnS [48]
11a:
3x+5=5x-57
3x-5x=-57-5
-2x=-62
x=31
11b:
2x+2x+4x+150+4x+150=360
12x+300=360
12x=360-300
12x=60
x=5

hope this helped !!
