Let x represent the smaller. Then x+1 is the greater of the two.

... x+1 = 2x +20

... 0 = x + 19 . . . . . subtract x+1

... x = -19

Your two integers are -19 and -18.

For the linear equation 3x + 7y = 42: a. Determine the slope: b. Determine y- intercept if it exists: c. Express equation in slo

algol13

Answer: The required answers are

(a) the slope of the given line is $-\dfrac{3}{7}.$

(b) y-intercept exists and is equal to 6.

(c) the slope-intercept form of the line is $y=-\dfrac{3}{7}x+6.$

Step-by-step explanation: We are given the following linear equation in two variables :

$3x+7y=42~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)$

We are to :

(a) determine the slope,

(b) determine the y-intercept, if exists

and

(c) express equation in slope-intercept form.

We know that

The SLOPE_INTERCEPT form of the equation of a straight line is given by

$y=mx+c,$ where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept of the line.

From equation (i), we have

$3x+7y=42\\\\\Rightarrow 7y=-3x+42\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{-3x+42}{7}\\\\\\\Rightarrow y=-\dfrac{3}{7}x+6.$

Comparing with the slope-intercept form, we get

$\textup{slope, m}=-\dfrac{3}{7},\\\\\\\textup{y-intercept, c}=6.$

Thus,

(a) the slope of the given line is $-\dfrac{3}{7}.$

(b) y-intercept exists and is equal to 6.

(c) the slope-intercept form of the line is $y=-\dfrac{3}{7}x+6.$
