Answer:

b = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2 , then

y = - 2x + b ← is the partial equation

To find b substitute (5, - 7 ) into the partial equation

- 7 = - 10 + b ⇒ b = - 7 + 10 = 3

jake added 1/8 cup of sunflower seeds and 4/5 cup of banana chips to his sundae. which is the best estimate of the total amount

bagirrra123 [75]

Jake added $\frac{37}{40}$ cup of toppings to his sundae.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount of sunflower seeds added = $\frac{1}{8}\ of\ a\ cup$

Amount of banana chips added = $\frac{4}{5}\ of\ cup$

Total = Amount of sunflower seeds + Amount of banana chips

Total = $\frac{1}{8}+\frac{4}{5}$

Taking LCM = 40

$Total = \frac{5+32}{40}\\\\Total = \frac{37}{40}$

Jake added $\frac{37}{40}$ cup of toppings to his sundae.

Simplify the following rational expression and state for what values they are undefined.

QveST [7]

Answer:

d-2 and d cannot = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

d^2 -10d+16

-----------------------

d-8

Factor the numerator

( d-8)(d-2)

-------------------

d-8

The undefined values occur when the denominator is equal to zero

d-8 = 0

d= 8

This means d cannot equal 8

Now cancel like terms in the equation ( d-8)

This yields d-2
