Which of the following best describes the slope of the line below

Mathematics
1 answer:
adoni [48]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

  B. Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

A line that has a negative "rise" (vertical change) for a positive "run" (horizontal change) has a negative slope. The slope is calculated from rise/run, so if the signs of rise and run are different, the slope is negative.

Any line that goes downward to the right has negative slope.

_____

Any line that goes upward to the right has positive slope.

Are angles congruent when their side measures are the same
Mkey [24]

Answer:

I don't believe so because congruent shapes are exactly the same but a side measurement could be the same on a square and a triangle but those aren't congruent shapes

When analyzing three linear functions, Michele noticed that they all intersected at the point (5, 3). What conclusion can Michel
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer: option B. it has the highest y-intercept.

Explanation:

1) point -slope equation of the line

y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

2) Replace (x₁, y₁) with the point (5,3):

y - 5 = m (x - 3)

3) Expand using distributive property and simplify:

y - 5 = mx - 3m ⇒ y = mx + 5 - 3m

4) Compare with the slope-intercept equation of the line: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

⇒ slope = m

⇒ b = 5 - 3m = y - intercept.

Therefore, for the same point (5,3), the greater m (the slope of the line) the less b (the y-intercept); and the smaller m (the slope) the greater the y - intercept.

Then, the conclusion is: the linear function with the smallest slope has the highest y-intercept (option B).
