-2.31-(-5.9)= -2.31+5.9= 3.59
Please share the piecewise function (either as a graph or as a definition written in math symbols).
Answer:
the slope is -8/5
Step-by-step explanation:
we need to get the equation in the form
y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
8x + 5y =40
subtract 8x from each side
8x-8x + 5y = -8x +40
5y = -8x+40
divide each side by 5
5y/5 = -8x /5 + 40/5
y = -8/5 x +8
the slope is -8/5 and the y intercept is 8
