Answer:

y-intercept or "b"= 40/9 or 4.4444

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we use the formula y = mx +b

m= slope

b = y intercept

The equation we are given is 8x +9y = 40.

First, we need to subtract 8x from both sides to isolate the y variable to one side:

8x +9y = 40

9y = -8x + 40

Now, we need to divide both sides by 9, to solve for "y". This will give use the format of y = mx +b.

9y = -8x +40

y = -8/9x + 40/9

Because 40/9 cannot be reduced (besides 4.44), it will be our "b" or y intercept.

y-intercept = 40/9

I hope this helps!

Suppose you'd like to save enough money to pay cash for your next car. The goal is to save an extra $28,000 over the next 6 year

Anna35 [415]

Given:

• Amount to save, A = $28,000

• Time, t = 6 years

• Interest rate, r = 5.3% ==> 0.053

• Number of times compounded = quarterly = 4 times

Let's find the amount that must be deposited into the account quarterly.

Apply the formula:

$FV=P(\frac{(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}-1}{\frac{r}{n}})$

Where:

FV is the future value = $28,000

r = 0.053

n = 4

t = 6 years

Thus, we have:

$28000=P(\frac{(1+\frac{0.053}{4})^{4\times6}-1)}{\frac{0.053}{4}}$

Let's solve for P.

We have:

$\begin{gathered} 28000=P(\frac{(1+0.01325)^{24}-1}{0.01325}) \\ \\ 28000=P(\frac{(1.01325)^{24}-1)^{}}{0.01325}) \\ \\ 28000=P(\frac{1.371509114-1}{0.01325}) \\ \\ 28000=P(\frac{0.371509114}{0.01325}) \end{gathered}$

Solving further:

$28000=P(28.0384237)$

Divide both sides by 28.0384237:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{28000}{28.0384237}=\frac{P(28.0384237)}{28.0384237} \\ \\ 998.6=P \\ \\ P=998.6 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the amount that must be deposited quarterly into the account is $998.60

$998.60

Five friends divide three bags of apples equally between them write the division represented in this situation as a fraction

ratelena [41]

We are given the statement stating five friends dividing three bags of apples equally. IN this case, since 3 is not divisible by 5, then the answer is a fraction. The numerator is the number of bags of apples and the denominator is the number of friends. The answer is 3/5

Classify the conic section without graphing 3x^2-2xy+3y^2+2x-4y+1=0

almond37 [142]

Circle: When x and y are both squared and the coefficients on them are the same — including the sign.

For example, take a look at 3x2 – 12x + 3y2 = 2. Notice that the x2 and y2 have the same coefficient (positive 3). That info is all you need to recognize that you’re working with a circle.

Parabola: When either x or y is squared — not both.
