What is the slope of the line with an equation of 5x - 3y = -12

Mathematics
1 answer:
Hoochie [10]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: m=\frac{5}{3} =1.67

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Original equation:  5x-3y=-12
  2. Subtract 5x from both sides of the equation: -3y=-5x-12
  3. Divide both sides of the equation by -1: 3y=5x+12
  4. Divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get y on the left, leaving the equation in y=mx+b form: y=\frac{5}{3}x+4
  5. Evaluate. Slope is equal to m in this form, so the slope is m=\frac{5}{3}.

Hope this helps!

Hunter-Best [27]

A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have no more than $320 to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $9.25, and tickets cost $28.25 per person, including tax. Write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine p, the number of people who can go to the amusement park.​

___________________________________________

Please, give me some minutes to take over your question

________________________

They have no more than $320 to spend on parking and admission

320 ≥ 9.25 + 28.25*p

9.25 + 28.25*p ≤ 320

320- 9.25 ≥ 28.25*p

310.75/28.25 ≥ p

p ≤ 11

__________________________

Answer

The number of people who can go to the amusement park can be a maximum of 11 people (less than or equal to 11).

Pachacha [2.7K]
So what will it be a percentage of? it will be the percentage of the original recruits, of the original 150.

for this, we need to divide the number of recruits that left over all recruits, and multiply by 100%:\frac{30}{150} *100%= \frac{1}{5} *100%=20%

so the number of trainees decreased by 20 %

A 72° sector in a circle has an area of 16.4π yd². What is the area of the circle? Use 3.14 for pi.
Dmitry [639]
The area of a sector of a circles is calculated by the equation A = πr^2 (theta/360). From the data of the sector, we determine the radius of the circle. THen, we can calculate for the area of the circle.

16.4π = πr^2 (72/360)
r = 9.06

Area of circle = πr^2 
Area of circle = π(9.06)^2
Area of circle = 82π

In a factory, the chance that a certain machine works without overheating in the morning is 50%. If it runs smoothly all morning
sammy [17]
Let's imagine that we turn the machine on 100 times. (this will make the percent conversion easier)

the chance that works in the morning is 50%  of 100 so it will work 50 times.

the chance that it will then continue for the rest of the day is 15% so 15%*50 (the number of times it worked), which is 7.5 times.

our times actually represented percent, so the answer is : 7.5%!
