Answer:

y = 4x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the line shown in your question.

We want to write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the value of y at the y intercept

As we are given the graph of the line, we can pick any 2 points to help us find the equation; in this case, let's take (0,3) and (-1, -1).

First, we need to find the slope of the line

The slope (m) can be found using the equation \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}, where (x_1, y_1) and (x_2, y_2) are points

Let's label the values of the points to avoid confusion and mistakes before calculating.

x_1= 0\\y_1=3\\x_2=-1\\y_2=-1

Now substitute these values into the equation for the slope

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-1-3}{-1-0}

Subtract

m=\frac{-4}{-1}

Divide

m = 4

The slope of the line is 4

Here is the equation of the line so far:

y = 4x + b

Now we need to find b

As stated above, b is the value of y at the y intercept; the y intercept is the point where the line intersects with the y axis. The value of x at this point is 0

One of the points we used to calculate the slope was actually the y intercept point; this point is (0, 3). The value of y at this point is 3, so the value of b is 3

Substitute 3 as b in our equation

y = 4x + 3

Solve the following pair of equations by elimination method: x+y=4, 2x+y=3​
allsm [11]

Answer:

x = 1

y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 4 __ (1)

2x + y = 3 __ (2)

equation (1) x 2, (2) x 1

2x + 2y = 8

2x + y = 3

0  + y = 5

y= 5 (ANS)

x + y = 4

x + 5 = 4

x = 5 - 4

x = 1 (ANS)

What equation represents the model shown below?
g100num [7]

Given:

The algebra tiles of an equation.

To find:

The equation represented by the given model.

Solution:

On the left side of the model we have 4 tiles of (-x) and 3 tiles of (-1). So,

LHS=(-x)+(-x)+(-x)+(-x)+(-1)+(-1)+(-1)

LHS=-4x+(-3)

LHS=-4x-3

On the right side of the model we have 8 tiles of (-1). So,

RHS=(-1)+(-1)+(-1)+(-1)+(-1)+(-1)+(-1)+(-1)

RHS=-8

Now, equate the LHS and RHS to get the equation.

-4x-3=-8

Therefore, the equation for the given model is -4x-3=-8.

Find the slope of the line passing through the points and .
sergejj [24]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{7}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 4 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, - 3 )

m = \frac{-3-4}{8-3} = \frac{-7}{5} = - \frac{7}{5}
