What is the y-intercept for the linear function y-4=2(x-6)​

Mathematics
1 answer:
Kruka [31]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<h2>-8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Method 1:

The slope-intercept of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

We have the equation of a line in the point-slope form:

y-4=2(x-6)

Convert it the the slope-intercept formula:

y-4=2(x-6)            <em>use the distributive property</em>

y-4=2x-12             <em>add 4 to both sides</em>

y=2x-8\to b=-8

Method 2:

The y-intercept is for x = 0. Put x = 0 to the equation:

y-4=2(0-6)

y-4=2(-6)

y-4=-12           <em>add 4 to both sides</em>

y=-8

Which best describes the relationship between the line that passes through the points (6, –1) and (11, 2) and the line that pass
saw5 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope of line through (6,-1) and (11,2) = (-1 - 2)/(6 - 11) = 3/5

slope of line through (5,-7) and (8,-2) = (-7 - (-2))/(8 - 5) = -5/3

product of the slopes = -1, so the lines are perpendicular.

A firm is hiring labor and capital in the cost-minimizing combination. Which of the following would cause the firm to increase h
Nuetrik [128]

The productivity of labor increases by 5% would cause the firm to increase hiring capital and decrease hiring of labor

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

A company can convert input data to output data. So, it gets divided the data into broad categories called production factors. Productivity variations, or more precisely the marginal products of labour, work in the same way as differences in real wages. Remember that marginal prices depend on both - real wages and the productivity.

If in case, productivity increases, perhaps because the company has increased its capital base, thereby marginal costs will decrease. Companies will produce more products and employ more employees. Conversely, if productivity drops, companies will produce less and destroy jobs.
