Answer:

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)

<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} where the given points (x_1,y_1) are (x_2,y_2)

Plug in the given points (0,8) and (3,6)

m=\frac{6-8}{3-0}\\m=\frac{-2}{3}

Therefore the slope of the line is \frac{-2}{3}. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+b

The y-intercept occurs when x=0. One of the given points is (0,8), so therefore, the y-intercept is 8. Plug this into y=\frac{-2}{3}x+b:

y=\frac{-2}{3}x+8

I hope this helps!

Find the distance :
faltersainse [42]
1. You would do 45 × 3 = 135 miles
2. 630 ÷ 2 = 315. 630 + 315 = 945 miles
3. 54 × 11 = 594 miles

1. Time is distance ÷ speed, so 4760 ÷ 560 = 8 1/2hours
2. 27 ÷ 54 = 0.5 hours, or 30 minutes
3. 1748 ÷ 437 = 4 hours

I hope this helps!

5:28^25 I think

6:keep the base multiply exponents

7:no because you would multiply the bases and keep the exponent the same

8:7 because 7 x 5= 35

1: 2 and 3 for the second part of it 2 and 5

2:7^30

3:54^3

What is the meaning of this WW1 quote?
Ghella [55]
The Great War (WW1) killed many empires who had been around for hundreds of years. It introduced some very inhumane weapons such as gas, and was the 1st war when old tactics met new ones. Back then, a war on this scale has never been seen. 

It also gave birth to many new nations

Find the radius of a circle in which the central angle of (pie /4 ) radian determines a sector with an area of 86m^2
LenKa [72]
Area of sector  = 1/2 * r^2 * x   where r = radius and x = angle in radians

86 = 1/2 * r^2 * pi/4

r^2 = 2 * 86 * 4  / pi  =  219

r =  sqrt 219

= 14.80

I need this answered Fast if possible. A car is traveling on a small highway and is either going 55 miles per hour or 35 miles
Alex787 [66]

a. It spends about 2.045 hours going 55 miles per hour

b. It spends 1 hour going 35 miles per hour

c. The trip would take about 3.64 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

A car is traveling on a small highway and is either going 55 miles per hour or 35 miles  per hour, depending on the speed limits, until it reaches its destination 200 miles  away

  • x represents the amount of time in hours that the car is going 55 miles per  hour
  • y represents the amount of time in hours that the car is going 35 miles per hour
  • The equation  that describing the relationship is 55x + 35y = 200

We need to find:

a. How long does it  spend going 55 miles per hour, if the car spends 2.5 hours going 35 miles per hour on the trip

∵ 55x + 35y = 200

∵ The car spends 2.5 hours going 35 miles per hour on the trip

∵ y represents the amount of time that the car going 35 mi./h

∴ y = 2.5

- Substitute the value of y in the equation to find the value of x

∴ 55x + 35(2.5) = 200

∴ 55x + 87.5 = 200

- Subtract 87.5 from both sides

∴ 55x = 112.5

- Divide both sides by 55

∴ x = 2.045 hours

It spends about 2.045 hours going 55 miles per hour

b.how long does it  spend going 35 miles per hour, if the car spends 3 hours going 55 miles per hour on the trip

∵ 55x + 35y = 200

∵ The car spends 3 hours going 55 miles per hour on the trip

∵ x represents the amount of time that the car going 55 mi./h

∴ x = 3

- Substitute the value of y in the equation to find the value of x

∴ 55(3) + 35y = 200

∴ 165 + 35y = 200

- Subtract 165 from both sides

∴ 35y = 35

- Divide both sides by 35

∴ y = 1 hour

It spends 1 hour going 35 miles per hour

c. How long would the trip take, if the car spends no time going 35 miles per hour

∵ 55x + 35y = 200

∵ The car spends no time going 35 miles per hour

∴ y = 0

- Substitute the value of y in the equation to find the value of x

∴ 55x + 35(0) = 200

∴ 55x  = 200

- Divide both sides by 55

∴ x = 3.63 hours

The trip would take about 3.64 hours
