B is consider to be the y-intercept. If you plot those two points and draw a line connecting the two. The line would go through (0,14). Making 14 the y-intercept and the correct answer.

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 }

You would just take .5x5 which would be 2.5 inches without the snow melting it would add up to 13.5in the last part with the tt I’m not sure but it follows the same principle .5x(Time)+the original amount will give you the answer

alfredo bought a fishing pole for 60 off it's original price of $97 if the tax was 4% how much did alfredo pay for the fishing p
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

$40.4

Step-by-step explanation:

The regular price of the fishing rod is $97

There is a 60% discount from that price.

The discount is equal to 60% of $97 which is equal to .60 * $97 which is equal to $58.2

Discount is like a markdown, so subtract $58.2 from the price of the item before the change to get $97 - $58.2 = $38.8 

This is the price of the item before tax is applied.

Now you apply the sales tax of 4%.

4% of $38.8 is equal to .04 * $38.8 which is equal to $1.552

Tax is like a markup, so add $1.552 to the price of the item before tax was applied to get a selling price of $38.8 + $1.552 which is equal to $40.352

Round it up and the answer is $40.4
