Answer:
In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis). This useful form of the line equation is sensibly named the "slope-intercept form".
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y - 5 = -1(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Point slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1) where m = slope and passing through point (x1 , y1)
In this case if the equation in point-slope form contains the point (–3, 5) and has slope –1 then the equation should be:
y - 5 = -1(x - (-3))
y - 5 = -1(x + 3)
Lines are neither perpendicular nor parallel.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
In equation 1, Y = 5X + 7
In equation 2, Y = -2X -5
Step 2:
Slope Intercept form Y =mX +c
Where m = Slope
Slope of line 1 = 5
Slope of line 2 = -2
m1 is not equal to m2. Hence it is not parallel.
m1 × m2 is not equal to -1. Hence they are not perpendicular.
Answer:
x > -4
Step-by-step explanation:
Inequalities like these are solved the same way equations are solved, except when multiplying both sides you flip the less than/greater than sign:
3x + 7 > -x -9
3x + 7 - 7 > -x -9 -7 Subtract 7 from both sides
3x > -x -16
3x + x > -x -16 + x add x to both sides
4x > -16
> 
divide both sides by 4
x > -4
In this case the inequality sign did not have to be flipped since we never multiply both sides by a negative number.
