Step-by-step explanation:

the general slope intercept formula is

y = ax + b

a is the slope of the line.

b is the y-intercept (the point, where the line crosses the y-axis, meaning the y value when x=0).

we get b by using the point coordinates in the equation and solve for b :

-2 = (1/4)×0 + b

b = -2 (as expected)

the full line equation is

y = (1/4)x - 2

Answer:

n = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

2n-8 = 5n Times both of the sides by 2

-9 = 3n subtract 2n from both sides

-3 = n Divide 3 from both sides.

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

13.3 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

A team of 4 people participates in a 400 -yard relay. And each team member runs the same distance and completed the race in a total of 53.2 seconds.

If we consider that each team member takes equal time for covering his part, then the average running time for each person is $\frac{ 53.2 }{ 4 }$ = 13.3 seconds. ( Answer )
