Question

If a line has a slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of -6, what is the x-coordinate if the y-coordinate is 4

Answer 1

Answer:

X=20. Our x coordinate is 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based from the given slope of 1/2 and a y-intercept of -6, our equation of a line is y=x/2 -6. To remove the fraction we can multiply the equation by 2 to get 2y=x-12. Using this substitute the value of y coordinate 4.

2(4)= x-12

8+12 =x

X=20.

Answer 2

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

since the line has a slope of 1/2, the x coefficient of the line is 1/2. Since the y intercept is -6, we have the equation of the line

x/2 - 6 = y

Since in this case y = 4, we have

x/2 - 6 = 4

x/2      = 10

x          = 20

So the x coordinate is 20 when the y coordinate is 4.
