Y-intercept:8x +9y=40

Mathematics
2 answers:
Kobotan [32]3 years ago

Answer:

y-intercept or "b"= 40/9 or 4.4444

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we use the formula y = mx +b

m= slope

b = y intercept

The equation we are given is 8x +9y = 40.

First, we need to subtract 8x from both sides to isolate the y variable to one side:

8x +9y = 40

9y = -8x + 40

Now, we need to divide both sides by 9, to solve for "y". This will give use the format of y = mx +b.

9y = -8x +40

y = -8/9x + 40/9

Because 40/9 cannot be reduced (besides 4.44), it will be our "b" or y intercept.

y-intercept = 40/9

I hope this helps!

I am weighed on scales which have a 10% error, that is, the scales show me 10% heavier than my real weight. If I actually weigh
stiks02 [169]
Remember you said the scale shows you 10% heavier.

So that's an increase of 10%

So value = 10% + 100% = 110%

So scale would show  110% of 82

110% of 82

= (110/100)  * 82

= 1.1 * 82

= 90.2

OR

We can simply find 10% of 82 and add it to the original 82.

10% of 82

(10/100) * 82

0.1 * 82 = 8.2

8.2 + 82 = 90.2    Same answer as before.

So scale shows 90.2 kg.

Without solving an equation, determine whether 1/4% of 80 is less than, equal to, or greater than 25% of 80?
Anettt [7]

1/4= 0.25%

25%>0.25

So, 25% of 80 is more than 1/4% of 80 and 1/4% of 80 is less than 25% of 80.

Which statements verify that the solution set to lx + 31 &lt; 5 is -8
lidiya [134]

Given:

Consider the inequality is |x+3| and its solution set is -8.

To find:

The statement that verify the solution set.

Solution:

Any value into the inequality form the solution set -8, will create a true statement and any value into the inequality not form the solution set -8, will create a false statement.

To verify the solution set set, we need to put any value form solution set into the given inequality.

Substituting a value into the inequality from the solution set, such as -2, will create a true statement.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
