Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the unit rate for this painting:

 3/5 of wall surface            3/5              15            9

------------------------------- = --------------- * --------- = -----------

         (8/15) hour                 8/15             15             8

Jane could actually paint the whole wall plus 1/8 more of it in one hour.

If (x - 4) varies inversely as (y + 3) and x = 8 when y = 2, what is x when y = - 1?
denpristay [2]

Answer:

x=14

Step-by-step explanation:

If two values are inversely proportional, their product must be maintained. That way, if one value goes up, the other goes down by the same extent.

Therefore, if (x-4) and (y+3) vary inversely, their product will be the same for all values of x-4 and y+3.

Let x=8 and y=2 as given in the problem. Substitute values:

(8-4)(2+3)=(4)(5)=20

Hence, the maintained product is 20.

Thus, we have the following equation:

(x-4)(y+3)=20

Substitute y=-1 to find the value of x when y=-1:

(x-4)(-1+3)=20,\\(x-4)(2)=20,\\x-4=10,\\x=10+4=\boxed{14}

Which of the following represents 3x-5y+10=0 written in slope-intercept form?
taurus [48]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intercept form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: Is the slope

b: Is the cut-off point with the y axis

We have the following equation:

3x-5y + 10 = 0

We manipulate algebraically:

We subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:

3x-5y = -10

We subtract 3x from both sides of the equation:

-5y = -3x-10

We multiply by -1 on both sides of the equation:

5y = 3x + 10

We divide between 5 on both sides of the equation:

y = \frac {3} {5} x + \frac {10} {5}\\y = \frac {3} {5} x + 2

Thus, the equation in the slope-intercept form is y = \frac {3} {5} x + 2

Answer:

y = \frac {3} {5} x + 2
