Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put the equation into the form y = mx +b (where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept)

This would look like:

$5x + y = 3\\y = -5x + 3$

This means the slope is -5.

Parallel lines always have the same slope, so the slope of the parallel line is also -5

Simple math but I can't seem to understand it: x+y=2 becomes y=2-x, in order to find slope and y intercept y=mx+b The result bec

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we started off with the equation:

$x+y=2$

And we subtracted x from both sides to acquire:

$y=2-x$

Now, this is essentially slope-intercept form. Recall that the slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

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

If we rearrange our equation:

$y=2-x\\y=-x+2$

And put some parentheses:

$y=(-1)x+(2)$

We can see that this is indeed slope-intercept form.

And we can see that m is -1 and b is 2.

In other words, the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is 2.

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

6 yards by 11 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors of 66 are ...

66 = 1·66 = 2·33 = 3·22 = 6·11

The last pair of factors differ by 5, so represent the solution to the problem.

The width of the parking lot is 6 yards; the length is 11 yards.
