Answer:
y = -(2/3)x + 3
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the equation that was given is - 2/3
The slope in a slope intercept equation is the number in front of the x when the value of the number in front of the y = 1 and x and y are on opposite sides of the equal sign. Let's translate that.
The original equation is y = -(2/3)x + 5/3
- y and x have to be on opposite sides of the equal sign [They are]
- The slope is the number in front of the x. That's (-2/3). That makes A incorrect.
Now you need to use the given point
The point is (-3 , 5) Put this into the equation that you have so far
y = (-2/3)x + b
y = 5
x = -3
5 = (-2/3)(-3/1) + b Substitute in the givens
5 = (-2 * -3)/3 + b Multiply -2 * - 3 = 6
5 = 6/3 + b Divide the 6 by 3
5 = 2 + b Divide
5 - 2 = b Subtract 2 from both sides
3 = b Switch sides
b = 3
Answer y = (-2/3)x + 3 or C
<span>4300 / 2 = 2150
Just simply divide</span>
1 & 5/8 because 7/8 is closer to 1 whole than 5/8
Answer:
Use the slope-intercept form y=mx+b to find the slope m. m=−1
Step-by-step explanation:
lets take the x's away from: -5x+4x
That will be -5+4
-5+4=-1
Because remember:
When adding positive numbers, count to the right.
When adding negative numbers, count to the left.
When subtracting positive numbers, count to the left.
When subtracting negative numbers, count to the right.
I hope this helps. :)
