Answer:

y=-3x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

Start with the given equation, and to find the slope, convert it to slope-intercept form by solving for y.

3x+y=-5

In this case, all you need to do is subtract 3x from both sides.

y=-3x-5

Here, the slope is -3. The slope of a parallel line will also be -3.

Now, we have 3 known variables. We have the slope and the x and y of a known point. Use those 3 knowns to solve for the 1 unknown, the y-intercept.

y=mx+b\\-5=(-3)(-1)+b\\-5=3+b\\-8=b\\b=-8

Finally, with the slope and the y-intercept, you can write the equation of the line:

y=-3x-8

The value of y varies directly with x. When y = 75, x = 1/2 What is the value of y when x = 18?
kondaur [170]

Answer: 2700

Step-by-step explanation:

Y = KX

75 = K × ½

75 ÷ ½ = K

75/1 × 2/1 = K

K is 150

Y = 150 × 18

I AM STUCK AND NEED HELP will give 30 points

<h3>Answer:  A) infinite solutions</h3>

Explanation:

Despite there only being one line shown, there are actually two lines here. One just happens to be directly on top of the other.

We can see this by noting that 2y = 3x-1 turns into 4y = 6x-2 when we multiply both sides by 2. Multiplying both sides by the same number keeps the same equation, so that's why we have identical graphs.

The two identical graphs intersect each other infinitely many times, leading to infinitely many solutions. All solutions are (x,y) points on the blue line. Two such solutions are (1,1) and (3,4). All solutions are of the form \left(x, \frac{3x-1}{2}\right)

The expression 100 + 20m100+20m100, plus, 20, m gives the volume of water in Marcel’s pool (in liters) after Marcel spends mmm m
Nady [450]
All you have to do is you only need to evaluate the given equation which is:100 + 20m where m would be the number of minutes = 5 1/4 minutes
100 + 20 (5 1/4) 
= 100 + 105 
= 205 cubic liters is the volume of water in Marcel’s pool after he fills it.

Answer:

~24.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

A circle is 360 degrees, we all know this.

The angle representing Techno is 28° While Country has a 60°. Combine this and we get 88° of people total chose country or techno. 88° divided by 360° gives us 0.2444444... With percentages, we move the decimal two places to the right, giving us:
