The correct answer is: slope-intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Recall that the first step in solving a system of linear equations using the substitution method is to solve one of the equations for one of its variables.

Of all the forms listed, only the slope-intercept form of an equation automatically has one of its variables solved-for (point-intercept form is not a real form). This means that if one of the equations in a system is already in slope-intercept form, then the first step can be skipped in using the substitution method.

Step 2

Match your solution to the correct answer choice.

Answer choice C is the only answer choice that identifies the form of linear equation that is the simplest to start when using the substitution method. Select answer choice C and move on to the next question.

Answer:

  A. point-slope form

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, the equation in point-slope form will give an expression that can substitute for "y", as that form is ...

  y = [something]

_____

In specific instances, the other forms of the linear equations may work, but that is not guaranteed.

Find x- and y-intercepts. Write ordered pairs representing the points where the line crosses the axes. y−3x=18
Radda [10]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y - 3x = 18

To find the y- intercept let x = 0 in the equation and solve for y

y - 3(0) = 18

y - 0 = 18

y = 18 ⇒ (0,18 ) ← y - intercept

To find the x- intercept let y = 0 in the equation and solve for x

0 - 3x = 18

- 3x = 18  ( divide both sides by - 3 )

x = - 6 ⇒ (- 6, 0 ) ← x- intercept

attashe74 [19]
Steps:
2 1/3 * 3 = 7
14 * 3 = 42
42 divided by 7 = 6
6 * 8 = 48
So, Maggie is 48 feet under the summit (-48). Therefore, the correct answer is d.
