Step-by-step explanation:

again (I just answered the same question), the slope is the ratio "y coordinate change / x coordinate change".

I see e.g the points

(-1, -1) and (0, -7) on the line.

x changes by +1 (from -1 to 0).

y changes by -6 (from -1 to -7).

so, the slope is -6/1 = -6.

so, D is the right answer.

Does anyone know the answer? Please and Thank you! Algebra

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

we can see the slope is down hill, so it's negative

when the X is zero then it's 2

b = 2

slope is rise over run 2/3

y = -2/3x + 2

the slope is -2/3 (note the negative)

the y intercept is 2

Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x is $\mathbf{y=-\frac{2}{3}x+3 }$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to Write the equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x

The equation in slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$ where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Finding Slope:

The both equations given are parallel. So, they have same slope.

Slope of given equation y= - 2/3x is m = -2/3

This equation is in slope-intercept form, comparing with general equation $y=mx+b$ where m is slope , we get the value of m= -2/3

So, slope of required line is: m = -2/3

Finding y-intercept

Using slope m = -2/3 and point (-3,5) we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\5=-\frac{2}{3}(-3)+b\\5=2+b\\ b=5-2\\b=3$

So, we get b = 3

Now, the equation of required line:

having slope m = -2/3 and y-intercept b =3

$y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x+3$

The equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is parallel to y= - 2/3x is $\mathbf{y=-\frac{2}{3}x+3 }$

The rays OM , ON , and OP in the figure, coincide at time t=0. At the same instant of time OM and OP rotate in the plane about p

Lilit [14]

OM and OP will coincide a second time after 120 seconds. You could visualize it as ray OP moving at 3 degrees/second relative to OM.
Using this visualization, we find that OM makes 30*60*3/360 rotations (minutes * 60 * rotational speed/360 degrees in a rotation), which is 15, and that OP makes 30*60*6/360 or 30 rotations, which is 15 more than OM.
