Given the point (5, -2), and slope = 6/5

Plug in the values into the slope-intercept formula:

y = mx + b
Where:
slope (m) = 6/5
b = y-intercept


We have to solve for the y-intercept. The y-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the y-axis. It is also the value of y when x = 0.

y = mx + b
-2 = 6/5(5) + b
-2 = 6 + b

Subtract 6 from both sides to solve for y-intercept, b:
-2 – 6 = b
-8 = b

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through (5,-2) and has a slope of 6/5 is:
y = 6/5x - 8

Answer:

y = 6/5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

use y = mx+ c

m = slope

c = y intercept

y = 6/5x - 2

25 is 32% of what number?
Maurinko [17]
You would set up the proportion 25/X= 32/100. 
25*100 is 2500, 32*x is 32x
2500 = 32x
/32       /32   dividing by 32 on both sides
78.125 = x

If angle A and angle B are supplementary. If measure of angle A= 9x+20 and measure of angle B= 6x+10, find measure of angle B
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

70 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary means the angles add up to 180 degrees. We can set up an equation using this:

9x+20+6x+10=180

Combine like terms.

15x+30=180

Isolate variable.

15x=150

x=10

Substitute in the variable for the expression of angle B

6(10)+10=70


Hope this helps!

Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen that decays by about 5% per year. A large bottle of water that contained 856,000 tr
Inessa05 [86]

The amount of Tritium that bottle contains now will be 439,421.

<h3>What is an exponent?</h3>

Consider the function:

y = a (1 - r)ˣ

Where x is the number of times this decay occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this decay occurs.

Tritium is a radioactive isotope of hydrogen that rots by around 5% each year. An enormous container of water that contained 856,000 tritium iotas stayed undisturbed for a very long time.

Then the amount of Tritium that bottle contains now will be given as,

y = 856,000 (1 - 0.05)¹³

Simplify the equation, then we have

y = 856,000 (1 - 0.05)¹³

y = 856,000 (0.95)¹³

y = 856,000 (0.51334)

y = 439,421

The amount of Tritium that bottle contains now will be 439,421.

More about the exponent link is given below.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! <br>What is the answer for question (iv)? <br>please help! ​
Leviafan [203]

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle ABC \sim \triangle ADE... (given) \\\\\therefore \frac {AC}{AE} = \frac {BC}{DE}.. (csst) \\\\\therefore \frac {5}{5+2x} = \frac {x+3}{4x+1}\\ \\ \therefore \: 5(4x + 1) = (5 + 2x)(x + 3) \\ \therefore \:20x + 5 = 5x + 15 + 2 {x}^{2}  + 6x \\ \therefore \:20x + 5 =2 {x}^{2} +  11x + 15 \\ \therefore \:2 {x}^{2} +  11x + 15 -2 0x  - 5 = 0\\  \therefore \:2 {x}^{2}  - 9x + 10 = 0\\ \therefore \:2 {x}^{2}  - 5x   -  4x+ 10 = 0\\ \therefore \:x(2x - 5) - 2(2x - 5) = 0 \\ \therefore \:(2x - 5)(x - 2) = 0 \\ 2x - 5 = 0  \:  \: or \:  \: x - 2 = 0 \\ x =  \frac{5}{2} \:  \:  or \:  \: x = 2 \\ x = 2.5 \:  \: or \: x = 2 \\ x = 2.5 \: is \: largest \\  \\  \frac{A(\triangle ABC)}{ A(\triangle ADE)} =  \frac{AC ^{2} } {AE^{2} } \\  \\ \frac{A(\triangle ABC)}{ A(\triangle ADE)} =  \frac{5 ^{2} } {(5 + 2x)^{2} } \\  =  \frac{25}{(5 + 2 \times 2.5)^{2} }  \\  =  \frac{25}{ {10}^{2} }  \\  =  \frac{25}{100}  \\  \\  \frac{A(\triangle ABC)}{ A(\triangle ADE)} =  \frac{1}{4}  \\
