We have that

(3y-8)/12=(y/5)---------> 5*(3y-8)=12*(y)
15y-40=12y-------------> 15y-12y=40
3y=40--------------> y=40/3

y=(40/3)----------> 13.33

the answer is y=40/3  (13.33)

2x+3y=6 fins the slope of the line
klasskru [66]
2x + 3y = 6

Put this into y=mx+b form (which is also called slope-intercept form)

Where m=slope and b=y-intercept

In order to put this into slope-intercept form, we simply need to subtract 2x from both side.s

3y = 6 - 2x

Then, divide both sides by 3 so that we fully isolate y.

3y ÷ 3 = (6 - 2x) ÷ 3

Simplify.

y = 2 - 2/3x

Put this into order by moving "x" onto the correct place.

y = -2/3x + 2

Therefore -2/3 is the slope, as it is in the "m" spot.

Hope I helped! :)

Find the slope of the line give these two points: (0,5) and (-7, -8) *
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

m=13/7

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation for slope (m) is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

the given points are (0,5) and (-7,-8)

we can label them:

x1=0

y1=5

x2=-7

y2=-8

now substitute into the equation

m=(-8-5)/(-7-0)

m=-13/-7

m=13/7

the slope is 13/7

hope this helps!
