How to find slope and y intercept from the equation ax+by=c?

Mathematics

solve for "y" so it is in the form y = mx + b.   "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

ax + by = c

      by = -ax + c          <em>subtracted "ax" from both sides</em>

       y  = (-a/b)x  + c/b     <em>divided both sides by "b"</em>

Answer: slope is -a/b    and y-intercept is c/b

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:9

Step-by-step explanation: First you add the 3x to both sides(the -4x and the -3x) and then you get 15-1x=6. Next you subtract 15 from 15 and 6, so you get -1x=-9. So then you divide both sides by -1 (do -1x over -1 equals -9 over -1). Last you do the dividing and you get x=9.

What is the exact distance from (−1, 4) to (6, −2)?
Studentka2010 [4]
Same as last time:

d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2

d^2=(6--1)^2+(-2-4)^2

d^2=7^2+(-6)^2

d^2=49+36

d^2=85

d=√85  (85=5*7 and both 5 and 7 are prime so √85 cannot be simplified any further)

The exact distance is √85 units.

Answer:

The point ( 0,-1) is a solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

y<= (x+1) (x+5)

y>= (x-1)^2 -6


See attached graph.


To prove algebraically, put the point (0,-1) into both equations and see if it is true for both of them.

y<= (x+1) (x+5)

-1 <= (0+1) (0+5)

-1<= 1*5

-1 <=5

True

y>= (x-1)^2 -6

-1 >= (-1)^2 -6

-1 >= 1-6

-1 >=-5

True

The point is a solution
