There are different types of equations of lines. 
There are these three main forms, but I'll focus on just 2: 

Slope-Intercept Form:
y = mx + b 

Where,
"m" = slope
"b" = y-intercept

Point-Slope Form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where, 
"m" = slope
"y1" = A y point on the graph
"x1" = A x point on the graph that correlates with the y value.

y = 6x - 12

Is in the same form of Slope-Intercept: 

So,

y = 6x - 12

m = 6 
b = -12

So our slope is, 
6

Keep in mind if it was a fraction (Example: 6/5, then the slope is 6/5) the slope will be the entire fraction. 

Also remember slope is the RISE over the RUN meaning it is the y value over the x value. So in this case we would go UP 6 and right 1 (because 6 is understood as 6/1).

Explain how your knowledge of place value helps you divide a number in the thousands by whole numbers to 10 give an example to s
lapo4ka [179]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

The value of a digit due to its position in a number is called as place value.

For example, there's a number

23450

2 is in ten thousands place and it has a place value of 20,000

3 is in thousands place and it has a place value of 3000

4 is in hundreds place and it has a place value of 400

5 is in tens place and has a place value of 50

0 is in unit or ones place and has a value of 0

When we divide the number by 10, we move every digit from its current place value to the right.

23450 divided by 10 = 2345

Now,

2 is in thousands place and it has a place value of 2,000

3 is in hundreds place and it has a place value of 300

4 is in tens place and it has a place value of 40

5 is in unit or ones place and has a place value of 5

I bought 1/2 gallon of paint then I found 1/3 of paint in my garage how much more paint do I need to have 3 gallons of paint
Ostrovityanka [42]
1/2 + 1/3 = (3*1)+(2*1) / (2*3) = (3+2)/6 = 5/6
tinha 5/6 de litro
para 1 litro faltam 4/6 de litro
para 3 litros faltam 2 litros e 4/6 de litro ou, simplificando:
4/6 = 2/3, logo, faltam 2 litros e 2/3 de litro.

Nataly [62]

y=2x\\y=x^2-15\\\\x^2-15=2x\\x^2-2x-15=0\\x^2-5x+3x-15=0\\x(x-5)+3(x-5)=0\\(x+3)(x-5)=0\\x=-3 \vee x=5\\\\y=2\cdot(-3) \vee y=2\cdot5\\y=-6 \vee y=10\\\\(x,y)\in\{(-3,-6),(5,10)\}
