What is the equation for a line with a slope of -1/3 and a y-intercept of -5?

y=-1/3x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b is equation of line where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

From question statement, we observe that

m= -1/3   ,  b= -5

put above values in equation of line, we get

y= -1/3x-5.

tickets for the harlem globetrotters

show at michigan state university in

2010 cost $16, $23, or, for vip seats, $40.

total revenue = 16x + 23y + 40z

if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, sales of all three kinds of tickets would

total $46,575.

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575, how many of each kind of ticket would

have been sold?

solve for x, y and z

x − 9z = 0

x − y − z = 55

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575

x = 1170

y = 985

z = 130
