Answer:

y= -3/5x - 7 (assuming slope-intercept form)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we see the slope. The basic template for a slope-intercept question is

y=mx + b

So, we put in -3/5 as "m" in this case, as it is the slope to get y= -3/5x +b

To find b, we can just try out the point that the equation gave us.

-3/5 * -5 = 3

Then, to get to -4 from 3, we need to subtract 7.

Then, we get our whole slope-intercept equation. y=-3/5x - 7

Answer:

The equation is y = 3/5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Construct an equation. We can use the slope-point formula to construct an equation from these (y - y₁ = slope * (x - x₁)). If you plug in these values, you'll get the equation y + 4 = -3/5(x +5).

2. Simplify. If you simplify, you'll get that y = 3/5x - 1 by isolating y.

Answer: The equation of the line is y = 3/5x - 1.

If the Alexanders completed the 735 mile trip in 15 hours, what was their average rate of travel?
Darina [25.2K]
The rate of travel here is in mph - "miles per hour".

That just means how many miles you can travel in one hour. In this problem, you're given 15 hours, and the distance they travel within those 15 hours.

Therefore, you should divide both the number of miles and the number of hours by 15 to find out how far they can travel in 1 hour.

735 ÷ 15 = 49 miles
15 ÷ 15 = 1 hour

Their average rate of travel was 49 miles in 1 hour, which is 49 mph.

Identify the solution and graph of the given inequality. 34 &gt; 3(2 − x)
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

x > 28/3

Step-by-step explanation:

34 > 3(2 − x)

simplify the bracket

34 > 6 -3x

combine the like terms

34 - 6 > 3x

28 > 3x

divide by 3

x > 28/3

Sorry I don't know how to graph here, but I can graph it by writing the way it can be graphed.

It is in slope intercept form; y = mx + b

where mx is the slope and b is the y-intercept;

x>28/3; where 28/3 is the slope which means; at the y-intercept, go up 28 times and to the right 3 times

And b is 0; which means at 0 where the slope will be applied, go up 28 times and to the right 3 times.

Hope this helps!

Good luck.
