Explanation: just add the exponent if you are multiplying two things with the same base
Answer:
y = -(2/3)x + 3
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the equation that was given is - 2/3
The slope in a slope intercept equation is the number in front of the x when the value of the number in front of the y = 1 and x and y are on opposite sides of the equal sign. Let's translate that.
The original equation is y = -(2/3)x + 5/3
- y and x have to be on opposite sides of the equal sign [They are]
- The slope is the number in front of the x. That's (-2/3). That makes A incorrect.
Now you need to use the given point
The point is (-3 , 5) Put this into the equation that you have so far
y = (-2/3)x + b
y = 5
x = -3
5 = (-2/3)(-3/1) + b Substitute in the givens
5 = (-2 * -3)/3 + b Multiply -2 * - 3 = 6
5 = 6/3 + b Divide the 6 by 3
5 = 2 + b Divide
5 - 2 = b Subtract 2 from both sides
3 = b Switch sides
b = 3
Answer y = (-2/3)x + 3 or C
12. Answer: 2130
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
T = -0.01y + 10.6
9.2 = -0.01y + 10.6
<u>-10.6</u> <u> -10.6 </u>
-1.4 = -0.01y
<u> ÷-0.01</u> <u>÷-0.01 </u>
140 = y
"y" represents the number of years after 1990
1990 + 140
= 2130

13. Answer: -0.0036° per foot
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Since the relationship is linear, then we can set up the values as x, y coordinates and use the slope formula to find the rate of degrees over feet.

Answer: Jorge has 62 marbles.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that Jaime has 38 marbles if Jorge had 14 more marbles he would have twice as many as Jaime.
We are to find the number of marbles that Jorge has.
Let x and y represents the number of marbles that Jalme and Jorge has respectively.
Then, according to the given information, we have

and

Thus, Jorge has 62 marbles.
