<span>y=mx+c
General equation
m is the slope
c is the intercept
So, when x axis is zero, the value in y axis will be equal to c.

Answer:
slope = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
See the attachment for the markup.
It is usually convenient to choose places where the graph crosses grid intersections. Here, the graph crosses the x- and y-axes at integer values, so those points could be used, for example. We chose points away from the axes so that the rise and run lines could be seen more easily.
The graph has a rise/run of ...
slope = rise/run = 2/1 = 2
The slope of the line is 2.
So in equations you want to do the same thing to both sides so that the equation will stay equal
when dealing with one unknown number (m) try to get them all on the same side
0.6m+3=2m+0.2
I usually like positive unknowns so
subtract 0.6m from both sides
3=1.4m+0.2
subtract 0.2 from both sides
2.8=1.4m
divide both sides by 1.4
2.8/1.4=2=x
if dividing by decimals move the decimal either round the decimals up or down then divide. or multiply them by the 10 to the same power then divide.
x=2
Answer:
4.4 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we are interested in calculating the value of x.
Mathematically, a line that comes from the center of the circle and extends to a chord, divides the chord into two equal parts.
This means what we have is a right angled triangle with the radius being the hypotenuse, the half of the length of the chord as the other side of the triangle.
3.7 is half the length of the chord i.e 7.4/2
Thus;
using Pythagoras’ theorem
x^2 = 2.4^2 + 3.7^2
Pythagoras’ posited that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides of the triangle.
Thus;
x^2 =5.76 + 13.69
x^2 = 19.45
x = √(19.45)
x = 4.41 inches which is 4.4 inches to the nearest tenth
