Answer:
y = 4x + -9
Step-by-step explanation:
The y intercept which is -9, is the point in which the graph crosses the x-axis
In order to find the slope we need to identify two clear points on the graph.
- (0, -9)
- ( 1, -5)
Now that we have our two points we need to find the distance between them.
As you can see on the attachment the distance between the two points is 4 units up and 1 unit to the right, therefore the slope is 4/1 = 4.
Final Answer: y = 4x + -9
Answer:
C = 12 + 15(x - 4)
C = 15x - 48
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hours = t
The total amount Miguel earns =
C
To edit a manuscript, Miguel charges 12 dollars per hour for the first 4 hours and 15 dollars per hour after the first 4 hours.
C = 12 + 15(x - 4)
Expand the t
C = 12 + 15x - 60
C = 15x - 48
Therefore, an expression for the amount, in dollars, Miguel charges if it takes him t hours to edit a manuscript, where t>4 is given as:
C = 15x - 48
Answer:
For the graph see attached image.
The y-intercept is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The requested graph of the function is included in the attached image.
The y-intercept can be seen from the image, but also from finding the y-value when x= 0 (zero):
Answer:
The slope is -2
y =-2x - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is -2 or -2/1.
The slope is the change in y over the change in x. The ordered pair is written in the form (x,y) The first number is the x coordinate and the second number is the y coordinate.
(1, -3) (0, -1) The -1 and the -3 are the y coordinates. We subtract these.
-1 -(-3) is the same as
- 1 + 3 which is 2.
(1, -3) (0, 1,) the 1 and the 0 are the x coordinates. We subtract these
0 - 1 is -1
The change in y is 2 and the change in x is -1, so our slope is -2/1 which is the same as -2.
To write the equation we need the slope and the y intercept. We have the slope now. We need to find the y-intercept. We will use the slope and one of the points to find the y-intercept. It does not matter which of the two points (1,-3) or (0,-1). I will use (0,-1)
y = mx + b The b is the y-intercept which is what we are looking for
-1 = -2(0) + b
-1 = 0 + b
-1 = b
y = -2x -1
