The sum of 5 consecutive numbers is -5. What is the largest out of the numbers?

xxTIMURxx [149]

We can say that x is the largest number.

So the sum is x + (x - 1) + (x - 2) + (x - 3) + (x - 4) = -5

Now solve for x:

x + x + x + x + x - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 = -5

5x - 10 = -5

5x = 5

x = 1

So the largest number is 1.

Check: 1 + 0 + -1 + -2 + -3 = -2 + -3 = -5 so 1 is correct.

What is the slope and y-intercept of y+1=4/3x

Sergio039 [100]

hello

so this equation is written in point slope form: $y-y_{1} = m(x-x_{1})$

we can solve for y to get the equation into slope intercept form: y=mx+b

y+1=4/3x

subtract 1 from both sides

y=4/3x-1

slope: 4/3

y-intercept: -1

hope this helps

have a nice day :)

Frequency (y) varies inversely with wavelength (x). Find the frequency (measured in THz ) of blue light if its k value is 175,72

horsena [70]

We have been that frequency (y) varies inversely with wavelength (x).

We know that two inversely proportional quantities are in form $a=\frac{k}{b}$ , where a is inversely proportional to b and k is constant of variation.

Our required equation would be $y=\frac{k}{x}$ .

To find frequency of blue light, we will substitute $k=175,720$ and $x=230$ in our equation as:

$y=\frac{175,720}{230}$

$y=764$

Therefore, the frequency of blue light is 764.
