Answer:

m = -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

4y + x = 8

Arrange the equation in a slope intercept form y = mx+b, where m is the slope

4y + x = 8, subtract x from both sides

   4y = -x +8, divide both sides by 4

     y = -x/4 + 8/4 , simplify

     y = -x/4 + 2, compare this to the general form y=mx+b and we see that the slope m = -1/4

Answer:

m = -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

4y + x = 8

Arrange the equation in a slope intercept form y = mx+b, where m is the slope

4y + x = 8, subtract x from both sides

    4y = -x +8, divide both sides by 4

      y = -x/4 + 8/4 , simplify

      y = -x/4 + 2, compare this to the general form y=mx+b and we see that the slope m = -1/4

Write an equation for the line (in slope-intercept form) that passes through the given point with the slope m. (0, -7); m = -7
Alina [70]

Answer:

y= -7x -7

Step-by-step explanation:

All line equations can be represented in the form y = mx + c where a is the gradient or slope and b is the y intercept. (letters used for m and c may vary)

You have been given the slope, = -7 which you can put into y=mx+c

y = -7x + c

The function of a line ^^ means that for any values of x, you multiply it by -7 and add -7. The given coordinates means that when x =0, y = -7. So you can plug these into y = -7x + c , -7 = -7(0) + c . Therefore c = -7

Alternatively, since the value for c is the y intercept, the coordinates immediately give you the answer c. x = 0 which means taht the line intercepts the y axis when y = -7. hence the y intercept = -7

Write as an inequality y is less than 0 and greater than -6
navik [9.2K]
Since Y is greater than -6 the symbol has to point away from the -6 and towards the y. And because Y is less than 0, the symbol has to point towards the zero and away from they. -6<y<0
