Answer:

\Large \boxed{{m=-1, \ b=2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 2

We need the equation in the form y = mx + b.

m = slope

b = y-intercept

Solve for y by subtracting x from each side.

y = 2 - x

The -x can be written as -1x.

y = 2 - 1x

Rearrange the expression.

y = -1x + 2

The equation is in form y = mx + b.

The slope is -1.

The y-intercept is 2.

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we started off with the equation:

x+y=2

And we subtracted x from both sides to acquire:

y=2-x

Now, this is essentially slope-intercept form. Recall that the slope-intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If we rearrange our equation:

y=2-x\\y=-x+2

And put some parentheses:

y=(-1)x+(2)

We can see that this is indeed slope-intercept form.

And we can see that m is -1 and b is 2.

In other words, the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is 2.

xenn [34]

Answer:

the number of children has red or brown hair is \frac{2}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have  been  given that in Marci's family there are total 6 children.

Out of 6 children

Number of children have blonde hair = \frac{1}{3}

Number of children have red hair = \frac{1}{6}

Number of children have brown hair = \frac{1}{2}

Since, we have to find the fraction of children has red or brown hair=\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}

Hence, the number of children has red or brown hair is \frac{2}{3}
