To find the slope, we must put the equation in y = mx + b form, and m represents ur slope.

7x - 2y = 4....subtract 7x from both sides
-2y = -7x + 4 ...now divide both sides by -2
y = (-7/-2)x + (4/-2)
y = 7/2x - 2....now we have it in y = mx + b form, and since m is ur slope, ur slope in this equation is 7/2.

A right triangle has a hypotenuse of 70 feet and a leg of 35 feet. What is the length of the other leg? Select one:

saveliy_v [14]

H = 70ft.
P = 35ft.
B = ?

H^2 = P^2 + B^2
70×70 = (35×35) + B^2
B^2 = 4900-1225
B = √3675
B = 35√3 ft.

Which of the following best describes the solution to the system of equations below?

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer: OPTION A

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.

Solve for y from each equation:

$\left \{ {{5y=-4x+7} \atop {10y=-8x+14}} \right.\\\\\left \{ {{y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}} \atop {y=\frac{-8}{10}x+\frac{14}{10}}} \right.\\\\\left \{ {{y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}} \atop {y=\frac{-4}{5}x+\frac{7}{5}}} \right.$

As you can see the slope and the y-intercept of each equation are equal, this means that both are the exact same line. Therefore, you can conclude that the system has infinitely many solutions.

What percent of 76 is 6

bulgar [2K]

To find what percentage one number is of another; divide the first number by the other number and multiply by 100 !

p = ( 6 / 76 )× 100 ;
p = 600 / 76 ;
p = 7.89 ≈ 8 ;
p% = 8% ;
