Does a linear function have to go through the origin

1 answer:

8 0

No, it doesn't. All it has to do is to have a slope that is constant. EX: y = 2x + 1. Notice that if you tried to plug in 0 for X, you will get 1 for y. This is the point (0, 1), which is right above the origin. Also, the slope here is 2, which is a constant.

PLEASE HELP I DONT UNDERSTAND!!

slega [8]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

3x and 144 are adjacent angles on a straight line and sum to 180°

3x + 144 = 180 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

3x = 36 ← value of 3x

divide both sides by 3

x = 12

and

2y - 5 and 95 are vertically opposite angles and are congruent, so

2y - 5 = 95 ← value of 2y - 5

add 5 to both sides

2y = 100 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 50

Then

x + y = 12 + 50 = 62

What is 18 divided by 2/3?

pishuonlain [190]

Division is basically
x divided by y=x/y so
18 divided by 2/3= $\frac{18}{ \frac{2}{3} }$
we want the bottom number to be =1 so we multiply 2/3 by 3/2 to make it 1 (or 6/6=1), but we have to multiply the top number by 3/2 also so that we don't change the fraction and make our work useless so

$\frac{18}{ \frac{2}{3} } times \frac{ \frac{3}{2} }{ \frac{3}{2} } = \frac{ \frac{54}{2} }{ \frac{6}{6} }= \frac{27}{1}=27$

Hello can anyone please help me find the answer to this.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No. Starting out, Maria walks away from home at a constant speed (which we recognize because the graph is at first a straight line). Then she stops for a little while, turns around and heads for home at the same speed as before (positively sloped graph), level graph, negatively sloped graph).
