Answer: your slope would be 3
There are 3600 seconds in one hour.
120 seconds is 2 minutes
therefore, the fraction is
Yes. This equation given:
______________________________
" y = (½)x + 4 " ; in point-slope form; also known as: "slope-intercept form" ; is:
______________________________________
" y = (½)x + 4 " .
______________________________________
In other words, the equation given is ALREADY written in "point-slope form" ; or, "slope-intercept form".
______________________________________
Note: An equation that is written in "point-slope form"
(or, "slope-intercept form"), is written in the format of:
______________________________________
" y = mx + b " ;_________________
in which:_________________
"y" is a single, "stand-alone" variable on the "left-hand side of the equation"; "m" is the coefficient of "x"; also:
"m" is the slope of the line; which is what we want to solve for;
"b" is the "y-intercept"; or more precisely, the value of "x"
(that is; the "x-coordinate") of the point at which "y = 0";
that is, the value of "x" ; or the "x-coordinate" of the point at which
the graph of the equation crosses the "x-axis".
______________________________________
Note that in our given equation, which is written in "point-slope form" (or, "slope-intercept form" — that is: " y = mx + b " ;
_______________________________________
which is: " y = (½)x + 4 " ;
_______________________________________
we have:
_______________________________________
"y" isolated as "stand-alone" variable on the "left-hand side" of the equation;
m = ½ ;
b = 4 .
_______________________________________
So here we just are gonna distribute and simplify.
