Draw a line representing the “rise” and a line representing the “run” of the line. State the slope of the line in simplest form.

The slope of the line in its simplest form is 3.

The slope of a line is Slope=\frac{Rise}{Run}.

We need to find the slope of the line in its simplest form.

<h3>What is the slope?</h3>

In mathematics, the slope or gradient of a line is a number that describes both the direction and the steepness of the line. The slope is often denoted by the letter m; there is no clear answer to the question of why the letter m is used for slope.

Select any two points on the line like A and B.

From the below figure it is clear that

Rise = Change in y = -2-(-5) = 3

Run = Change in x = 9-0 = 9

Now, \frac{9}{3} =3

Therefore, the slope of the line in simplest form is 3.

What is the equation of the following line written in slope-intercept form?
nasty-shy [4]
SOLUTION:

To begin with, let's establish that the formula of this line is in slope-intercept form as follows:

y = mx

The formula for this line isn't:

y = mx + b

This is as this line doesn't have a y-intercept ( b ) as it passes through the origin instead. This means that ( b ) would be rendered useless in this formula as it would just bring us back to the y = mx formula as displayed below:

y = mx + b
y = mx + 0
y = mx

Moving on, for ( m ), we need to find the gradient of the line as displayed below:

m = gradient
m = rise / run
m = 10 / 2
m = 5

Now, we must simply substitue ( m ) into the formula in order to obtain the equation for this line as displayed below:

y = mx
y = 5x

Therefore, the answer is:

A. y = 5x

On a 120-question test, a student got 96 correct answers. What percent of the
madreJ [45]

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages are usually found by taking the value that you want to find and dividing it by the whole amount (100% of the total value available). In this case, getting 100% on the test would mean getting 120/120, because 120 points is 100% of the points available. However, the student only got 96 points out of the whole 120 points, so to find the percentage, you do 96/120 to find what part of 96 comes out of 120. Then to convert to percentage, multiply that value by 100 to get your finale value.

How many solutions can be found for the equation 5x + 3(x − 1) = 10x − 2x − 3? None
salantis [7]
Simplify:
3(x - 1) = 8x -3
Expand:
3x - 3 = 8x - 3
Cancel -3:
3x = 8x
Move all terms to one side:
3x - 8x = 0
Simplify 3x - 8 to -5x
-5x = 0
Divide both sides by -5:
x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property: →→ a(b+c)=ab+ac

Order of operations stands for:

↓

Parenthesis

Exponent

Multiply

Divide

Add

Subtract

*Left to right*

Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally!

First, you remove parenthesis.

6j+8j+5+5

Then, you add by the numbers from left to right.

6+8=14

14j+5+5

5+5=10

<u><em>14j+10 is the final answer.</em></u>

Hope this helps!

Have a nice day! :)
