Answer:

y=\frac{-3}{5}x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the point (-5, -3), and a slope of -3/5

We want to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope, and b is the y intercept

As we are already given the slope, we can immediately plug it into the equation

y=\frac{-3}{5}x+b

We need to find b, though

We can use (-5, -3) to help us, as the equation will pass through that line

Substitute the value of x as -5 and the value of y as -3 to solve for b

-3=\frac{-3}{5}*-5+b

Now, on the right, multiply -3/5 and 5 together

-3=3+b

Subtract 3 from both sides

-6=b

Substitute 6 as b in the equation

y=\frac{-3}{5}x-6

Hope this helps!

Write a polynomial function that meets the given conditions. Answers may vary. Degree 2 polynomial with zeros of 2√ 13 and -2√13
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The polynomial function is x^{2} - 52

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial has roots x_{1}, x_{2} such that ax^{2} + bx + c = (x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2}).

In this problem:

The roots are x_{1} = 2\sqrt{13} and x_{2} = -2\sqrt{13}

Then

(x - 2\sqrt{13}) \times (x - (-2\sqrt{13})) = (x - 2\sqrt{13}) \times (x + 2\sqrt{13}) = x^{2} - 2x\sqrt{13} + 2x\sqrt{13} -(2\sqrt{13})^{2} = x^{2} - 52

The polynomial function is x^{2} - 52

Which equations represent the line that is parallel to 3x − 4y = 7 and passes through the point (−4, −2)? Check all that apply.
jonny [76]
First, we find the slope of the given line.

<span>3x − 4y = 7

-4y = -3x + 7

y = (3/4)x - 7/4

The slope of the given line is 3/4.
The slope of the parallel line is also 3/4.

Now we need the equation of the line that has slope 3/4 and passes through point (-4, -2),

We use the point-slope form of the equation of a line.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - (-2) = (3/4)(x - (-4))

y + 2 = (3/4)(x + 4)     <---- check option E. Is the fraction 3/4 not there?

y + 2 = (3/4)x + 3

y = (3/4)x + 1

4y = 3x + 4

3x - 4y = -4    <------ this is choice B.

marta [7]

A student had 500 milliliters of water in a water bottle. She drank 25% of the water before soccer practice. After practice, she drank 1/3 of the remaining water.

​How much water, in milliliters, does the student have left in the bottle?

Answer:

the amount of water the student have left in the bottle is 250 milliliters

Step-by-step explanation:

A student had 500 milliliters of water in a water bottle. She drank 25% of the water before soccer practice. After practice, she drank 1/3 of the remaining water.

​How much water, in milliliters, does the student have left in the bottle?

Before the soccer practice, she drank 25 % of the water

25% of the water = 25% of 500

                             = 25% × 500

                              =\frac{25}{100} ×  500

At the right hand-side of the equation, the two zeros will cancel-out the other two zeros, hence;

                                = 25 × 5

                                 =125

25% of the water = 125 milliliters

From the question, it was said that drank 25% of the water before soccer, this implies that she drank 125 milliliters from the water bottles.

If she drank 125 milliliters of  from a 500 milliliters water contain in the water bottle, then the amount of water left will be 500 ml - 125 ml = 375 ml

This implies that before the soccer practice she had 375 milliliters of water left in the water bottle.

After the practice, she drank 1/3 of the remaining water, which means after the practice she drank 1/3 of 375

1/3 of 375 = \frac{1}{3} × 375 = \frac{375}{3} = 125

After the practice she drank 125 milliliters of water from her 375 milliliters water.

The amount of water she have left after the practice will be;

375 milliliters - 125 milliliters = 250 milliliters

Therefore, the amount of water the student have left in the bottle is 250 milliliters
