Answer:

$-\frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, rearrange the equation to y=mx+b or y=mx+c.

$4x+5y=-10$

Subtract 4x from both sides:

$5y=-10-4x$

Divide 5 on both sides:

$y=\frac{-10-4x}{5}$

$y=-\frac{4}{5} x-2$

In the equation of y=mx+b/y=mx+c, m will be the slope.

Therefore, the slope is $-\frac{4}{5}$

A bacteria colony doubles in 8 hours. How long does it take to triple? Use N=No2^t/T

Volgvan

You will first find the unit rate which is single in four hours so then multiply by triple which is 3 and then you get triple will be in 12 hours

Which equation has no solution? A 2(x+1)=1 B 2(x+1)=2x+2 C 2(x+1)=2x+1 D 2(x+1)=2

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

C) 2(x+1)=2x+1 ( No Solution )

Step-by-step explanation:

$2(x+1)=1\\\cfrac{2\left(x+1\right)}{2}=\frac{1}{2}\\x+1=\cfrac{1}{2}\\ x+1-1=\frac{1}{2}-1\\\boxed{x=-\frac{1}{2}}$

$2(x+1)=2x+2\\2x+2=2x+2\\2x+2-2=2x+2-2\\2x=2x\\2x-2x=2x-2x\\0=0$

$2(x+1)=2x+1 \\2x+2=2x+1\\2x+2-2=2x+1-2\\2x=2x-1\\2x-2x=2x-1-2x\\0=-1\\\boxed{No\:Solution}$

$2(x+1)=2\\\cfrac{2\left(x+1\right)}{2}=\cfrac{2}{2}\\x+1=1\\x+1-1=1-1\\x=0$
