Find the value of y so that the points (-2,5) and (8y) lie on a line with the slope -1/5

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula:

        y2 - y1

m = ,     which here becomes

         x2 - x1

          y - 5          -1

m =  =

        8 - (-2)          5

Solve this for x.  Cross multiplication yields:

5y - 25 = -1(10) = -10

Then 5y = 15, and y = 3

this shows a reflection over the x-axis and is translated one unit down and 6 units to the right (x + 6, y - 1)

hope this !

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
