Y = -3x + b
Plug in point
-4 = -3(3) + b
-4 = -9 + b, b = 5
Solution: y = -3x + 5
3,648 (three thousand six hundred fourty eight) pieces of candy!
Answer:
9 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
28 inches rope cut into 3-inch pieces
There is no matching answer choice, if given numbers are correct then the answer is 9 full pieces
---------
<u>Note:</u>
- The close answer choice is 8
- 28/8 = 3 1/2 or 3.5
- So if cut into 3.5 inch pieces then it is 8 full pieces
- just in case it was typo 3 instead of 3.5
Answer:
y = -(2/3)x + 3
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the equation that was given is - 2/3
The slope in a slope intercept equation is the number in front of the x when the value of the number in front of the y = 1 and x and y are on opposite sides of the equal sign. Let's translate that.
The original equation is y = -(2/3)x + 5/3
- y and x have to be on opposite sides of the equal sign [They are]
- The slope is the number in front of the x. That's (-2/3). That makes A incorrect.
Now you need to use the given point
The point is (-3 , 5) Put this into the equation that you have so far
y = (-2/3)x + b
y = 5
x = -3
5 = (-2/3)(-3/1) + b Substitute in the givens
5 = (-2 * -3)/3 + b Multiply -2 * - 3 = 6
5 = 6/3 + b Divide the 6 by 3
5 = 2 + b Divide
5 - 2 = b Subtract 2 from both sides
3 = b Switch sides
b = 3
Answer y = (-2/3)x + 3 or C
