Answer: 3

Explanation: The equation in this problem is written in slope intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form.

The m or the coefficient of the x-term represents slope and the b or the constant term represents the y-intercept.

Looking back at our original equation which is y = 3x - 5, notice that the 3 is where the m goes in y = mx + b form.

So the slope of this line will be 3.

Answer:

The y intercept and the slope are given in the equation. y=mx+b is slope-intercept form. mx is the slope and b is the y intercept. so in y=3x-5, 3x is the slope and -5 is the y intercept (what y is when x is zero).

Solve the following proportion. P/6 = 7/8 A: P=5.25 B: P=8 C: P=10.5 D: P=42

ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

given $\frac{P}{6}$ = $\frac{7}{8}$

using the method of cross- multiplication then

8P = 42 ( divide both sides by 8 )

P = $\frac{42}{8}$ = 5.25

I need help for all of this problems!

Harlamova29_29 [7]

A) All triangles add up to 180° so when given two angles, add those up and subtract them from 180° . That will give you the missing angle.

3-5) When you do A above, and receive the measurement of angle 1, it will also equal 2 and you can repeat A for missing angle 3

6-8) Find the missing angle next to 1, and then subtract that from 180°. That number is the answer for 1. 2 is 55 as its a complimentary (i think thats the right term) angle. Which means it is on the opposite side of an angle. I don't remember how to find 3 however, its been a few years since I've done triangles.

So if p then q
the converse is if q then p

so
if x is odd then 2x+1 is odd
converse is
if 2x+1 is odd, then x is odd

jane lives 1 3/8 miles from the airport. She drove from her house to the airport and back 2 times. How far did Jane drive? Move

Ket [755]

Answer:

$5\frac{1}{2}\ mi$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$1\frac{3}{8}\ mi=\frac{1*8+3}{8}=\frac{11}{8}\ mi$

She drove from her house to the airport and back 2 times

Multiply the distance from her house to the airport by 4

$(4)*\frac{11}{8}=\frac{11}{2}=5\frac{1}{2}\ mi$

The students in a college marching band are arranged in rows. The recursive rule f(n) = f(n − 1) + 8 and f(1) = 13 gives the num

anzhelika [568]

Answer:

There are 24 more trumpet players than clarinet players

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The recursive rule or the number of band members in a row is f(n) = f(n - 1) + 8

Where f(1) = 13

The members of the band players in row 1 = The clarinet players

The members of the band players in row 4 = The trumpet players

Therefore, the number of clarinet players = f(1) = 13

The number of band members in row 2, f(2) = f(1) + 8 = 13 + 8 = 21

The number of band members in row 3, f(3) = f(2) + 8 = 21 + 8 = 29

The number of band members in row 4, f(4) = f(3) + 8 = 29 + 8 = 37

Therefore, given that the trumpet players are in row 4, the number of trumpet players = The number of band members in row 4 = 37 Trumpet players

The difference in the number of trumpet and clarinet = The number of more trumpet players than clarinet players = 37 - 13 = 24 more trumpet players than clarinet players

There are 24 more trumpet players than clarinet players.
