Okay, let's see...
The problem is asking for a linear equation most likely in the form of y=mx+b
y is another way to say f(x)
<em>m = slope </em>
<em>b = y intercept </em>
Let's start with the y intercept first.
Y intercept means ' When does the line touch (intercept) the y axis.
In this case, if you look at the graph, the line <em>touches </em>the y axis at -1.
-1 will replaces b
To find the slope we are going to take 2 precise points from the graph.
Lets use <em>(0,-1)</em> and <em>(-6,4) </em>
To find the slope, we're going to use
4 - (-1) / -6 - 0
Solve, our slope is 5/-6
That is our m
Our final equation is
Answer:
<em>d = 3</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Coordinate Plane
The image provided shows the four points given:
A=(2, 1), B=(5, 1), C=(7,2), D=(4,2).
It can be clearly seen the length of CD is just the difference of their x-coordinates:
CD = 7 - 4 = 3
We can also use the formula of the distance.
Given two points C(x,y) and D(w,z), the distance between them is:
d = 3
