Write in equation of the line in the graph

To write the equation of a line, we use the equation: y = mx +b.

m is the slope of the line, which can be calculated using the equation:
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) 
We can choose any two points on the line to put into this equation. The red dots are at (0,0) and (-6,-2), so we will use those, but you would get the same answer by using any other pair of coordinates on the blue line.
m = (-2 - 0)/(-6 - 0) = 2/6 = 1/3

b is the y-intercept of the line. The y-intercept is the y-coordinate when the line crosses the y-axis. It crosses the y-axis at (0,0), so the y-intercept is 0.


Now, we plug our values back into the full equation to get the equation of the line.
y = mx + b
y = (1/3)x + 0 

So the final answer is y = (1/3)x or y = x/3, depending on how you want to write it.

Help, this is a khan question so you may have done it before
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

Eric, 9.8 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula with the given coordinate and each of the other coordinate.

\sqrt{(10-3)^{2}+(8-2)^{2} } Brooke

\sqrt{(-6-3)^{2}+(6-2)^{2} } Eric

\sqrt{(8-3)^{2}+(-6-2)^{2} } Cam

You'll see that Eric kicked the furthest distance with a distance of 9.8 meters.

Brooke kicked 9.2 meters and Cam kicked 9.4 meters. What does the distance formula really mean? When you solve for the distance between two points, you're really just creating a triangle between those two points, and you're actually looking for the hypotenuse. The slope that intersects your two points is the hypotenuse of the triangle you created.

1. The ratio of the number of boys to the number of girls on the swim team
Papessa [141]

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio 4 + 2 = 6 parts

Divide 24 by 6 to find the value of one part of the ratio

24 ÷ 6 = 4 ← value of 1 part, thus

number of boys = 4 × 4 = 16

number of girls = 2 × 4 = 8

Hence there are 8 more boys than girls
