y = - 4x + - 8 is equation of slope-intercept form.
What is in slope-intercept form?
- Given the slope of the line and the intercept it forms with the y-axis, one of the mathematical forms used to derive the equation of a straight line is called the slope intercept form.
- Y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the straight line and b is the y-intercept, is the slope intercept form.
the equation of slope - intercept form
y = mx + c
( -1 , -4 ) is point shown in graph
slope = -y/x
= - ( -4)/-1 = 4/-1 = -4
- 4 = -4 * - 1 + c
- 4 = 4 + c
c = - 4 - 4 = - 8
put value of c in the equation of slope - intercept form
y = - 4x + - 8

<span>So
let’s simplify the given situation.
We need to find out how much heavier is 91/8 lbs. compare to 2 5/6 lbs.
Since, it’s a combination of whole number and fraction; we cannot directly
subtract this given equation. We need to convert the two given number into a
fraction.
9 1/8 = 8 x 9 = 72 + 1 = 73, 73 is our numerator and 8 is our denominator
=> 73/8
2 5/6 = 6 x 2 = 12 + 5 = 17, 17 is our numerator and 6 is our denominator
=> 17/6
Now, we have 2 fractions with unlike denominator. In order to get a common
denominator, we have to find their least common factor.
=> <u>73</u> - <u>17 </u> = <u>73 x 6 </u> - <u>17 x 8 </u> <u>
</u> 8 6
8 x 6 6
x 8</span><span>
=> <u>438</u> – <u>136 </u> Now, we
have the same denominator, subtract</span><span>
48 48
=> <u>302 </u> or <u>151</u>
48 24
=> 6 <u>7</u>
24
Therefore 9 1/8 lbs. is 6 7/24 lbs. heavier than 2 5/6 lbs.</span>
