What is slope-intercept form? Why do we write equations using this form?

Mathematics

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept

the slope is the rate of change of the graph, basically rise/run (change in y divided by change in x)

the y intercept is where the graph intercepts the y axis





we usually use this form because we can find the slope and find where it hits the y axis.
there are other forms that may be helpful later on, but this one is usually the easiest form to find from a graph

What are the lengths of sides KN and NM of the kite? KN = units NM = units
Rainbow [258]
The figure of the kite shown in the figure is a quadrilateral because it has four sides. The lengths of each side is expressed as a function of x and y. In order to determine the values of x and y, you make use of the short lines that mark the sides. These are symbols of congruency. If two sides are equal, you mark them both with the same symbol. So for the figure above, side NM = side LM and side KL = side KN. Therefore, we equate them as follows:

NM = LM
2x + 6 = 3x - 1
3x - 2x = 6 +1
x = 7

KL = KN
2y + 5 = y + 10
2y-y = 10 - 5
y = 5

So, we know that the values are x=7 and y=5. We use this to know the actual values of sides KN and NM.

KN = y + 10
KN = 5 + 10
KN = 15

NM = 2x + 6
NM = 2(7) + 6
NM = 20
