What is the Y-intercept? Give explanation please

Mathematics

Answer:

y = 8x - 26 → y = 8x + -26 \\ \\ -26 = b

Step-by-step explanation:

First, check the <em>rate of</em><em> </em><em>change</em><em> </em>[<em>slope</em>]:

\frac{-y_1 + y_2}{-x_1 + x_2} = m

\frac{2 + 6}{-3 + 4} = \frac{8}{1} = 8☑

Then plug these coordinates into the Slope-Intercept Formula instead of the <em>Point-Slope Formula</em>, to get it done much swiftly. It does not matter which ordered pair you choose:

6 = 8[4] + b

32

−26 = b

y = 8x - 26

_______________________________________________

−2 = 8[3]+ b

24

−26 = b

y = 8x - 26

** You see? I told you it did not matter which ordered pair you choose because you will ALWAYS get the exact same result.

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Answer:

-26 is the y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

since you already have the slope solved, you just have to plug in one of the two coordinate pairs. i plugged it (4,6) since it didnt have any negatives to work with. 6 should be where y is and 4 is x. you now should solve it as a normal equation. it gave me -26.

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is 3y=−4x+2 ?
vova2212 [387]

we know that

if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is equal to minus one

so

m1*m2=-1

Step 1

<u>Find the slope of the given line</u>

we have

3y=-4x+2

Solve for y

Divide by 3 both sides

3y/3=(-4x+2)/3

y=-\frac{4}{3}x+ \frac{2}{3}

the slope of the given line is m1=-\frac{4}{3}

Step 2

<u>Find the slope  of a line that is perpendicular to the given line</u>

we have

m1=-\frac{4}{3}

m1*m2=-1

m2=-1/m1

substitute the value of m1

m2=-1/(-4/3)=\frac{3}{4}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the slope is \frac{3}{4}

Jayda is running around a track where 3 laps is 5km. She runs 6 laps in 20 min. What is her speed in min per km
zzz [600]

Answer:

2km/m

Step-by-step explanation:

6 laps = 10km

(because 3 x 2 = 6 and double 5km as well)

Distance divide time = speed

20 mins divided by 10km = 2km per minute
