If the linear functions have the same slope but different y-intercepts, they will never intercept. If the If the linear functions have the same slope and the same y-intercet, they are the same line. If the linear functions have different slopes and different y-intercepts, they will intercept.
The you find this is by first finding the slope. You do this by finding the difference between both x values and then both y values. You get 12(x), 6(y) then write it as a fraction. it is 12/6 which simplifies to 2. 2 is our slope. then you write it out in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) and plug in your numbers. pick one set of original points an put them in to x and y. now you just solve for b. this gives you -9 as b. you put it together to get
y=2x-9
hope this helps!!!! :)
Let's make our equation in the form of y = mx + b
<span> 2x – 6y = 9
Add 6y on both sides
2x = 6y + 9
Subtract 9 on both sides
6y = 2x - 9
Divide 6 on both sides
y = 1/3 - 3/2
Now, we have it in the form of y = mx + b
In y = mx + b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
That means in y = 1/3 - 3/2, the slope is A) 1/3.
Your answer is A) 1/3</span>
987 mm is the answer
