What is the slope and y-intercept for the line represented by this equation? – 3x + 8y = – 24

1 answer:

8 0

Slope: 3/8
Y-intercept: -3
For future reference, just use the slope-intercept form y=mx+b. M is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}6x+3y=-21&\text{divide both sides by (-3)}\\2x+5y=5\end{array}\right\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x-y=7\\2x+5y=5\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad\qquad4y=12\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\.\qquad\qquad y=3\\\\\text{Put it to the second equation:}\\2x+5(3)=5\\2x+15=5\qquad\text{subtract 15 from both sides}\\2x=-10\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\x=-5$

Which decimal is greater 0.7 or 0.07?

Radda [10]

Answer:

0.7

Step-by-step explanation:

As, if 0.7 is extended, 0.7 = 0.70

while 0.07 remains small

therefore the number after the decimal point, if present makes it greater than one which doesn't eg; 0.67 and 0.067

the tangent line to the curve y=x^3-6x^2-34x-9 has slope 2 at two points on the curve. find the two points

hichkok12 [17]

$\bf y=x^3-6x^2-34x-9\implies \cfrac{dy}{dx}=3x^2-12x-34
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{slope of 2}}{2}=3x^2-12x-34\implies 0=3x^2-12x-36
\\\\\\
0=x^2-4x-12\implies 0=(x-6)(x+2)\implies x=
\begin{cases}
6\\
-2
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{y}{f(6)}=(6)^3-6(6)^2-34(6)-9\implies f(6)=-213\\\\\\ (\stackrel{x}{6}~,~\stackrel{y}{-213})
\\\\\\
\stackrel{y}{f(-2)}=(-2)^3-6(-2)^2-34(-2)-9\implies f(-2)=27\\\\\\ (\stackrel{x}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y}{27})$
