Answer:

<h3><em>To graph the equation of a line, we plot at least two points whose coordinates satisfy the equation, and then connect the points with a line. We call these equations "linear" because the graph of these equations is a straight line.</em></h3><h3><em /></h3><h3><em>There are two important things that can help you graph an equation, slope and y-intercept.</em></h3><h3><em /></h3><h3><em>Slope</em></h3><h3><em>We're familiar with the word "slope" as it relates to mountains. Skiers and snowboarders refer to "hitting the slopes." On the coordinate plane, the steepness, or slant, of a line is called the slope. Slope is the ratio of the change in the y-value over the change in the x-value. Carpenters and builders call this ratio the "rise over the run." Using any two points on a line, you can calculate its slope using this formula.</em></h3>

Write the equation 9y = 12x + 0.2 in standard form. Identify A, B, and C.
uysha [10]

Answer:

A = -12, B = 9 and C = .2

Step-by-step explanation:

So it just looks like we need to use algebra to move everything around to get it in the form Ax + By = C

So, let's start with 9y = 12x + 0.2.  From standard form we have all terms wth variables on one side, so let's do that.  the right sie has both a variable term and non variable term, so let's get rid of the variable term.  The variable term is 12x, so to get rid of it you subtract 12x from both sides.

9y = 12x + 0.2

9y - 12x = 0.2

To make it exactly in standard form just rarrnge.

-12x + 9y = 0.2

So now we have A = -12, B = 9 and C = .2

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

2044 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

number of cups left = number of cups in the watering can - number of cups remaining

convert the capacity of the watering can to cups

1 quart = 4 cups

512 x 4 = 2048

2048 - 4 = 2044
