Transpose the equation:

8x+6y=30
First minus 8x from each side of the equation.
6y=30-8x
Then divide each side by 6.
y=5-1.33x   or if you want the answer in exact form:
y=5-4/3x
The slope is 4/3 or 1.333.

The form for the y-intercept equation is y=mx+b where m=the slope. If we can get it into that format, it will give us the slope. So we need to solve for y.

8x+6y=30

To simply things, we are going to divide the whole equation by 2. So the equation is now:
4x+3y=15

We need to move the 4x to the right side so we subtract 8x from both sides
4x-4x+3y=15-4x
3y=15-4x

Now we need to get y alone so we divide by 3
3y/3=\frac{-4x+15}{3}

We can separate that fraction and we have:
y=- \frac{4}{3}x+5

Now that we have it in the right format we can see that if you look at the formula y=mx+b then m= - \frac{4}{3} 

Hope that helps.

The last terms must multiply to the last terms (confusing)

example

if ax^3+bx^2+c+d=(ex+f)(gx+h)(jx+k) then
d=fhk


so


70 is last term
we got 2 and 5
2*5*?=70
10*?=70
divide by 10
?=7

the missing number is 7

Applying the Third Corollary to the Inscribed Angles Theorem A circle is shown. Points A, B, C, and D are on the circle. Lines c
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

  • ∠B = 110°
  • ∠D = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite angles in an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, so ...

  ∠B +∠D = 180°

  (3x -4) +(2x -6) = 180

  5x = 190 . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms

  x = 38 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 5

  ∠D = 2(38) -6 = 70

  ∠B = 180 -70 = 110

The measures of angles B and D are 110° and 70°, respectively.

Write a rule for the nth term of the arithmetic sequence described below.
belka [17]

Answer:

an = 115 + (n - 1) (-6)

a25 = - 29

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the definition for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence:

an = a1 + (n - 1) d

a5 = 91 = a1 + (5 - 1) d

91 = a1 + 4 d

a20 = 1 = a1 + (20 - 1) d = a1 + 19 d

1 = a1 + 19 d

now we subtract term by term one expression from the other

90 = 4 d - 19 d

90 = - 15 d

divide both sides by -15 to isolate d

d = 90 / (-15) = -6

Now we can calculate what a1 is using for example:

1 = a1 + 19 d

1 = a1 - 114

add 114 to both sides:

115 = a1

Then our general expression for the sequence is:

an = 115 + (n - 1) (-6)

We can now use it to calculate the value of a25:

a25 = 115 + (24) * (-6) = -29
