Write the equations of three distinct lines that have the same y-intercept,-1.

1 answer:

7 0

Three possible answers are:
y = 2x-1
y = 5x-1
y = -3x-1

All of them have the same y intercept of -1. The slopes are the only thing that differ.

Any linear equation can be written in the form y = mx+b where
m = slope
b = y intercept

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the line through the points (−3,−6) and (0,3).

Slope= y/x so first let’s find the difference in the y coordinates. -6 and 3. -6 + 9= 3
So far we have 9/x, now on to the x coordinates. -3 and 0, -3 + 3 = 0
9/3 is the slope
now simplify and the slope is 3

An accounting machine operator wanted to divide an 85-minute job between two identical machines so that one machine would take o

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

To find how much time the machine that took the longer job is, you would create an equation in terms of X, the amount of time it takes one of the machines.

Please see the attached picture for the work.

51 minutes is the longer time.
34 minutes for the other machine.
