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).

Please help i suck at these

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

1st Option;

j = 4.5

k = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for "j" first:

=> We know that by the definition of midpoint segment theorem we can say;

3j = 5j - 9

0 = 5j - 3j - 9

0 = 2j - 9

0 + 9 = 2j

9 = 2j

9/2 = j

4.5 = j

=> Now that we have j-value we use the same method to solve for k-value;

6k = k + 10

6k - k = 10

5k = 10

k = 10/5

k = 2

Therefore;

j = 4.5

k = 2

So the first option would be correct!

Hope this helps!

The newly elected president needs to decide the remaining 5 spots available in the cabinet he/she is appointing. If there are 15

skad [1K]

Answer: There are 360360 ways to appoint the members of the cabinet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of eligible candidates = 15

Number of spots available = 5

We need to find the number of different ways the members can be appointed where rank matters

For this we will use "Permutations":

So, the required number of different ways in choosing the members for appointment is given by

$^{15}P_5=360360$

Hence, there are 360360 ways to appoint the members of the cabinet.

How many passwords of 4 digits are there(a)if none of the digits can be repeated?(b)start with 5 and end in an even digit?

liraira [26]

Answer:

5040,56

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct pass words of 4 digits

a) None of the digits can be repeated

We have total digits as 0 to 9.

4 digits can be selected form these 10 in 10P4 ways (since order matters in numbers)

No of passwords = 10P4

= $10(9)(8)(7)\\=5040$

b) start with 5 and end in even digit

Here we restrain the choices by putting conditions

I digit is compulsorily 5 and hence only one way

Last digit can be any one of 0,2,4,6,8 hence 5 ways

Once first and last selected remaining 2 digits can be selected from remaining 8 digits in 8P2 ways (order counts here)

=56
