Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b

x-3y=18
-3y=18-x
y=18/-3 -x/-3
y=-6+x/3

y=x/3-6

Slope= 1/3
y-intercept= -6

Answer:

Simple...

you have: x-3y=18

You want to convert it into slope-intercept form or y=mx+b form-->>>

x-3y=18

Isolate the variable-->>

x-3y=18

-x -x

-3y=-x+18

Now simply divide...

-3y/-3 = -x+18/-3

y=1/3x=6

Thus, your answer.

How to solve this system of equal: x+y+z=1;x^2+y^2+z^2=1

There are infinitely many solutions.

Algebraically, we can eliminate $z$ and try to solve for $x,y$ :

$x+y+z=1\implies z=1-x-y$

Then

$x^2+y^2+(1-x-y)^2=1$

$\implies x^2+y^2+1-2x+x^2-2y+y^2+2xy=1$

$\implies x^2-x+y^2-y+xy=0$

which is the equation of an ellipse.

Please help me find the value of each variable in the parallelogram

seropon [69]

Answer:

K=10 H=65

Step-by-step explanation:

To work out K, you need to know that opposite angles are the same, so 5k is the same as 50, 50÷5= 10, so k=10

To work out H, you know that opposite angles are the same so 2h is the same as 130, 130÷2=65 so h=65
