Y = mx + b is the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line,
where m = slope, and b = y-intercept.
In problems 1 and 3, your equations are written in the y= mx + b form, so you can read the slope and y-intercept directly.
1.
m = -5/2
b = -5
3.
m = -1
b = 3
5.
For problem 5, you need to solve for y to put the equation
in y = mx + b form. Then you can read m and b just like we did
for problems 1 and 3.
4x + 16y = 8
16y = -4x + 8
y = -4/16 x - 8/16
y = -1/4 x - 1/2
m = -1/4
b = -1/2
Lol I don’t understand that language

A. 0
B. -66
C. 4
D. 998
E. -12
Step-by-step explanation:
A. By definition, the sum of anything and its additive inverse is zero.

B. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.
-22 + (-44) = -22 -44 = -66

C. -36/x = -9 can be solved by multiplying by x and dividing by -9:
-36 = -9x
-36/-9 = x = 4
Since the product of the divisor and quotient is the dividend, dividing the dividend by either gives the other. Here, your dividend is -36 and your quotient is -9. To find the divisor, you can divide -36 by -9, as we did.

D. The absolute value function changes the sign of negative numbers to positive:
|-998| = 998

E. If you have trouble with sums, your calculator can help.
(−2)−[(−3)−(−7)−(−6)]
= -2 -(-3 +7 +6) = -2 -10 = -12
