38(m - 29) = 434...distribute thru the parenthesis
38m - 1102 = 434...add 1102 to both sides
38m = 434 + 1102
38m = 1536....divide both sides by 38
m = 1536/38
m = 768/19 or 40 8/19
Answer:
slope = y = 1/2
y-intercept = b = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept equation:
y = mx + b----->(equation 1)
m is slope
b is y-intercept
y = 1/2x - 3----->(equation 2)
Compare (equation 1) and (equation 1)
slope = y = 1/2
y-intercept = b = -3
19) 48 alligators; 7/8 of the alligators were asleep. How many were not asleep?
8/8 - 7/8 = 1/8
48 * 1/8 = 48/8 = 6 alligators were not asleep.
20) 2/3 of the student population participated. 1,500 is the student population of the school. HOw many attended the bike rally?
1500 * 2/3 = 1500*2 / 3= 3000 / 3 = 1000 students attended.
21) 18 times at bat:
Kayla 5/6 of the time = 18 * 5/6 = 18*5 / 6 = 90/6 = 15 hits
Tia 8/9 of the time = 18 * 8/9 = 18*8 / 9 = 144/9 = 16 hits
Tia got more hits.
