Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 3 = (x - 2)

Solve for y. Then when the equation is in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, m is the slope.

y - 3 = x - 2

Add 3 to both sides.

y = x + 1

Compare to y = mx + b: y = 1x + 1

m = 1

Answer: The slope is 1.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line (when in point-slope form) will be the coefficient of the term on the right side of the equation. In this case that is 1.

Given linear function, y = -2/3X + 5 What is the slope?

Vikki [24]

Answer:

The slope is $-\frac{2}{3}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is conveniently in slope-intercept form.

$y=mx+b$

m - slope

b - y-intercept

-2/3 is in m's spot, so it is the slope of the equation.

$y=\boxed{m}x+b\\\\y=\boxed{-\frac{2}{3}}x+5$

Hope this helps.

Kia has 2 1/4 pounds of peppermint candies. She wants to put them in small bags, each about 3/8 of a pound . How many small bags

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When I am dealing with fractions I put them in money wise so 2 1/4 would be like 2.25 and 3/8 would be like 0.75.

So that means you divide 2.25 by 0.75 and that will give you three.

Therefore Kia can make 3 small bags of candies.

A line passes through the point (-7,8) and has a slope of 1

Mila [183]

Answer:

y - 8 = x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line use the point slope form. Substitute m = 1 and (-7,8).

$y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y - 8 = 1(x --7)\\y - 8 = 1(x + 7)\\y - 8 = x+7$
