Answer:

y = - 5x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Intercept = 8

Slope = - 5

Recall, the general. Slope - intercept equation :

y = bx + c

Where;

b = slope ; c = intercept

Plugging the Given slope and intercept values, equation becomes ;

y = - 5x + 8

How many soultions? -4x-7+10x=-7+6x
hammer [34]

Answer:

C. Infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

-4x - 7 + 10x = -7 + 6x

Combine like terms on the left side. Rearrange the right side.

6x - 7 = 6x - 7

Add 7 to both sides.

6x = 6x

Subtract 6x from both sides.

0 = 0

0 = 0 is a true statement.

Both sides are equal, so all real values of x make the equation true.

Answer: C. Infinitely many solutions.

This one is confusing (slope)
Komok [63]

The answer is positive 1/5. Here is a tip, when reading a graph read from left to right. If it is going up to the right it is positive. If it goes down going to the right it is negative. Also think rise/run. Count how many times it goes up(or down) then count how long the line goes.

Find the equation of a line containing the given point and slope (10,5); m=9/20
ohaa [14]
\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1\\
%   (a,b)
&({{ 10}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies \cfrac{9}{20}
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})\implies y-5=\cfrac{9}{20}(x-10)\\
\left. \qquad   \right. \uparrow\\
\textit{point-slope form}
\\\\\\
y-5=\cfrac{9}{20}x-\cfrac{9}{2}\implies y=\cfrac{9}{20}x-\cfrac{9}{2}+5\implies y=\cfrac{9}{2}x+\cfrac{1}{2}
