What is the slope of the line with equation <br>-3x+6y=12
notka56 [123]

Note the slope intercept form: y = mx + b, in which m = slope

Isolate the y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. First, add 3x to both sides

-3x (+3x) + 6y = (+3x) + 12

6y = 3x + 12

Fully isolate the y. Divide 6 from both sides (and to all terms)

(6y)/6 = (3x + 12)/6

y = (3x)/6 + (12)/6

Simplify

y = (1/2)x + 2

y = 0.5x + 2 is your equation.

The slope is direclty left of the x (or the m variable). In this case, it is 0.5

0.5 is your answer (or 1/2 if wanted in fraction form)

Translating a sentence into a multi-step equation
Kryger [21]

Answer:7x-4= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3.

The answer is 7x-4= 3 beacuse:

(a.  whenever you have something less than , the first number in the sentence (in this cacse 4) goes after the second number (in this case 7) with a subtraction sign in the middle. (imagine this equation looking like 7-4 <u>for now)</u>.Thats a little trick i use whenever i have to write "something less than something"

(b. okay so now we know it has to be 7 times somethig -4=3, but now we just need to write the "product of 7 and a number" in proper form. in other words, whenever you get somethig times a number, it is always going to be  that number with an x right next to it. so thats why i made it 7x.

(c. "equals 3" is easy because you just turn it into an "=3".

(d. Now put it together. "4 less than the product of 7 and a number is equal to 3." becomes 7x-4=3.

Hope this helps :)) Also brainliest would be appreciated, worked pretty hard on this ! :D
