The linear equation when b= 5 and m = -2 is O y = 5x – 2. Oy= 5x + 2. y = -2x - 5. O y = -2x + 5

y = -2x + 5

General Formulas and Concepts:

Algebra I

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define given

y-intercept b = 5

Slope m = -2

Step 2: Write function

y = -2x + 5

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.
