When that equation is graphed, it produces a straiught line. The slope
of the line is 5, and the line intersects the y-axis at y=6.

All function of type: y = ax + b

a = slope b = intersept

So:

slope = 5
intersept = 6

Suppose you are asked to find the area of a rectangle that is 2.1-cm wide by 5.6-cm long. Your calculator answer would be 11.76

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is 12 cm² (to two significant figures)

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the area of a rectangle that is 2.1-cm wide by 5.6-cm long,

The area of a rectangle is given by

Area = l × w

where l is the length

and w is the width

From the question,

l = 5.6 cm

and w = 2.1 cm

Hence, Area of the given rectangle will be

Area = 5.6 cm × 2.1 cm

Area = 11.76 cm²

Now, we will convert the answer to two significant figures

Then,

Area = 12 cm²

Hence, the area of the rectangle is 12 cm² (to two significant figures)

I only need 12 and 17, first good response i will give brainliest please i’m desperate

Mumz [18]

Answer:

$\textsf{12.} \quad y = 6x - 5$

$\textsf{17.} \quad y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Question 12</u></h3>

Find the slope of the line by substituting two points from the given table into the slope formula.

<u>Define the points</u>:

Let (x₁, y₁) = (2, 7)
Let (x₂, y₂) = (3, 13)

$\implies \textsf{slope}\:(m)=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{13-7}{3-2}=\dfrac{6}{1}=6$

Substitute the found slope and point (2, 7) into the point-slope formula to create an equation of the line:

$\implies y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$\implies y-7=6(x-2)$

$\implies y-7=6x-12$

$\implies y=6x-5$

<h3><u>Question 17</u></h3>

Given:

f(4) = 3
f(0) = -2

Therefore, two points on the line are:

(4, -3)
(0, -2)

The y-intercept is the y-value when x = 0.

Therefore, the y-intercept of the line is -2.

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{6.3 cm}\underline{Slope-intercept form of a linear equation}\\\\$y=mx+b$\\\\where:\\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $m$ is the slope. \\ \phantom{ww}$\bullet$ $b$ is the $y$-intercept.\\\end{minipage}}$

Substitute the y-intercept and the point (4, 3) into the slope-intercept formula and solve for <em>m</em> to find the slope:

$\implies y=mx+b$

$\implies -3=m(4)-2$

$\implies -1=4m$

$\implies m=-\dfrac{1}{4}$

Therefore, the equation of the line is:

$y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-2$
