Y = mx + b

8x - 4y - 9 = 0

first you move the nine to the other side of the equal sign (add nine to both sides)

8x - 4y = 9

then you need to also move your 8x over to the other side as well (remember we are trying to get y by itself!)

- 4y = -8x + 9

then we are going to divide -4 to both sides

and you get

y = 2x - 9/4

we can then identify the slope as 2

so B. 2 would be your answer

hope this helped

A colony of bacteria triples in link every 10 minutes. It's length is now 1 mm. How long will be in 40 minutes

Nuetrik [128]

If the bacteria is tripling every 10 minutes, that means the "rate of increase" on that period is 200%, so if say the current amount is "c", 200% of "c" is just 2c, so c + 2c is 3c, a tripled amount.

$\bf \textit{Periodic Exponential Growth}\\\\
A=I(1 + r)^{\frac{t}{p}}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\
I=\textit{initial amount}\to &1\\
r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{200}{100}\to &2.00\\
t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &40\\
p=period\to &10
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
A=1(1 + 2)^{\frac{40}{10}}$

a father and his son clean the house together in 2 hours. when the son works alone, it takes him an hour longer to clean than it

Marizza181 [45]

It takes the son one and half hours to clean the house. To find this you need the equations F+S=2 and F+1=S. (F=father and S=son) You take the F+1 and substitute it in for S in F+S to get F+(F+1)=2. Then you combined like factors, 2F+1=2, and simplify to get F=.5hr. After this you plug .5 in to F+1=S to get (.5)+1=S, meaning it takes the son 1.5 hour to clean the house.
