Answer:

m = 30, b = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The equation is written in slope-intercept form, so it follows the following equation: y = mx + b, where y = y-coordinate, m = slope, x = x-coordinate, and b = slope.

2. As you can see, 30 is the value that took the place of m, and 20 is the value that took the place of b.

Therefore, m is 30 and b is 20.

Hi there!

I believe your answer is:

m = 30

b = 20

»»————-　★　————-««

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{General Slope-Intercept Form}}\\\\y=mx + b\\$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The 'm' is the slope and 'b' is the 'y-intercept'.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The '30' takes place for 'm', so it is the slope of the equation. The '20' is in the 'b' spot, so it is the y-intercept.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

Hope this helps you. I apologize if it’s incorrect.

Kyra was building a bed for her dollhouse. She used her bed, which is 4 feet × 5 feet, as a guide. She scaled down the dimension

Crank

The dimensions would have to be 20 x 5 as the model holds the same amount for each side, and because 5 is larger than 4 its used as the models stand.
Hope it helps! :)

Caleb and Mike both score the same amount of points in a game. Caleb has fifteen less than the total number of points. Mike has

elena-s [515]

Answer:
129 points
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L and C represent the scores of Luke and Caleb, respectively.
L = 2C -15 . . . . . Luke scored 15 less than twice the number Caleb did
L +C = 201 . . . . . they scored 201 points altogether
Add twice the second equation to the first:
2(L +C) + (L) = 2(201) + (2C -15)
3L +2C = 387 +2C . . . . simplify
3L = 387 . . . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 2C
L = 387/3 = 129 . . . . . . .divide by 3
Luke scored 129 points.

Use the diagram that awnser the questions.

CaHeK987 [17]

Part A
The first thing we must do in this case is to hide the slopes of each line.
line m:
m = (- 4-3) / (0 - (- 4))
m = -7 / 4
Line n:
n = (- 2-2) / (3-1)
n = -4 / 2
n = -2
Answer:
Lines m and n are not parallel because their slopes are different.

Part B:
We look for the slope of the K line:
k = (1 - (- 3)) / (4 - (- 3))
k = 4/7
We observe that it is true that:
k = -1 / m
Answer:
The lines are perpendicular.
