Answer:

b. slope: -5; y-intercept: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

y + 5x = 7

To find the slope and y-intercept of the line, it would be helpful to get the equation into slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a line is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Lets get the given equation into slope-intercept form.

y + 5x = 7

Subtract 5x from both sides.

y = -5x + 7

Now we have the equation in slope-intercept form. By looking at the equation, we can see that the slope is -5 and that the y-intercept is 7.

The correct answer choice would be b.

I hope you find my answer and explanation to be helpful. Happy studying.

You get tired of the sand and head up to the amusement park. You can purchase 20 ride tickets for $14 or you can purchase 30 rid
Helga [31]

Answer:

The one with the better deal would be 30 ride tickets for $22.50 this is because you pay less money for more rides.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 20 by 14. Doing this will give you the cost of a ride per ticket.

20/14 = 1.42

Then you do the same thing to 30 and 22.50.

30/22.50 = 1.30

Last you compare which deal has less money per ride.

1.42 > 1.30
