What is the y-intercept? y-3=1\2(x+2)

1 answer:

Y-3=1/2(x+2)

To find the y-intercept, we must first get the equation in slope intercept form. Start off by distributing 1/2 into the parentheses.

y-3= 1/2x+1
Add 3 to both sides

y= 1/2x+4

The slope is whatever is in front of x, in this case, 1/2. The y-intercept is the number after that which would be 4

uysha [10]

first off, let's notice that Purple's time is in minutes, whilst the rate is in miles per hour, the units of both must correspond, so, we can either change the time from minutes to hours or the rate from hours to minutes, hmmm let's change the time to hours.

so 40 minutes, we know there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so 40 minutes will be 40/60 of an hr, or namely 2/3.

$\qquad \qquad \textit{inverse proportional variation} \\\\ \textit{\underline{y} varies inversely with \underline{x}} ~\hspace{6em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{y=\cfrac{\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}}{x}~\hfill } \\\\ \textit{\underline{x} varies inversely with }\underline{z^5} ~\hspace{5.5em} \stackrel{\textit{constant of variation}}{x=\cfrac{\stackrel{\downarrow }{k}}{z^5}~\hfill } \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\stackrel{\begin{array}{llll} \textit{\tiny "t"ime varies}\\ \textit{\tiny inversely with "s"peed} \end{array}}{t = \cfrac{k}{s}}\qquad \textit{we know that} \begin{cases} t=\stackrel{minutes}{40}\to \stackrel{hrs}{\frac{2}{3}}\\ s=\stackrel{m/h}{9} \end{cases} \implies \cfrac{2}{3}~~ = ~~\cfrac{k}{9} \\\\\\ 18=3k\implies \cfrac{18}{3}=k\implies 6=k~\hfill \boxed{t=\cfrac{6}{s}} \\\\\\ \textit{when s = }\stackrel{m/h}{12}\textit{ what is "t"?}\qquad t=\cfrac{6}{12}\implies t=\cfrac{1}{2}$

You bought one skirt at $18.27, two shirts at $15.78, and a pair of shoes at $34.50. if the tax rate is 7%, what is the total co

Ludmilka [50]

I believe the answer to that problem would be $68.55, since you have to add them together and then multiply them by .07 for the percentage.

3. Given that P||S and r||q and that <2 = 120 degrees, find m<6.

Nikitich [7]

Answer:

B. 60 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

∠6 corresponds to ∠3, which is supplementary to ∠2.

∠6 = 180° -∠2 = 180° -120°

∠6 = 60°
