Amira is told there is a trick to finding the slope within an equation in standard form, Ax+By=C. She is told she can rewrite th

is equation in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, to find the pattern. She correctly rewrites the equation 7x+9y=14 in slope-intercept form as y=− 7/9x +14/9. Which answer explains the pattern for how to find the slope using an equation in standard form?
A. In slope-intercept form, the slope is 14/9. These values are C and A, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − C/A.

B. In slope-intercept form, the slope is − 7/9. These values are A and B, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − A/B.

C. In slope-intercept form, the slope is 14/9. These values are C and B, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − C/B.

D. In slope-intercept form, the slope is − 7/9. These values are A and B, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − B/A.

Answer:

B. In slope-intercept form, the slope is − 7/9. These values are A and B, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − A/B.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let's convert the standard equation into slope-intercept form:</u>

  • Ax + By = C              ⇒ subtract Ax from both sides
  • By = -Ax + C             ⇒ divide both sides by B
  • y = -A/Bx + C/B        ⇒ converted to slope- intercept form

As we see the slope is -A/B

<u>The equation 7x + 9y = 14 is converted as:</u>

  • y = -7/9x + 14/9, where the slope is -7/9

<u>Looking at the answer options and the correct one is option B, where both identification of slopes match.</u>

  • B. In slope-intercept form, the slope is − 7/9. These values are A and B, but with the opposite sign, so the slope of the line from the equation in standard form is − A/B.

Answer:

C) x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When two segments intersect in a circle like so, the product of the two parts of one segment will be equal to the product of the two parts of the other segment.

So,<em> 3 * 6 = x * 2</em>

Multiply: 18 = x * 2

Divide: x = 9

I need help on this math problem.
OLEGan [10]

B: (0, a)

C should have the same y value as B

D: (a,0)

C should have the same x value as D


So point C is (a,a)

Since point A is on the origin, its point is (0,0)


You use the slope formula and plug in point A and C:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

m=\frac{a-0}{a-0}

m=\frac{a}{a}

m = 1


So the value that belongs in the green box is 1

Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{b}{3}+16=20

Subtract 16

\frac{b}{3}=20-16

\frac{b}{3}=4

Multiply by 3

b=4*3

b=12
