Answer:

y = x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line passes through the points (3,\:0)=(x_1,\:y_1) \:\&\:(6,\:3)=(x_2,\:y_2)

Equation of line in two point form is given as:

\frac{y - y_1}{y_1 - y_2}  =  \frac{x - x_1}{x_1 - x_2}  \\  \\  \therefore \: \frac{y - 0}{0 - 3}  =  \frac{x - 3}{3 - 6}   \\  \\ \therefore \: \frac{y }{- 3}  =  \frac{x - 3}{ - 3}   \\  \huge \red{ \boxed{\therefore \:  y = x - 3}} \\  \implies \: y = mx + b

Answer: y = 1x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The equation to find slope is shown by the following:

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} = slope                    (another term for slope is "m")

Choose two coordinates on the graph to solve this problem.

I chose (15,12) and (9,6), although any other set of points would have worked

At this point, you would plug the x and y coordinates in their respective places and solve:

\frac{12-6}{15-9\\} = \frac{6}{6}\\ = 1

Now we know the slope/m = 1

This is the equation so far: y = 1x+b

2: Now, we have to solve for b, or the y-intercept

To solve for b, we need to plug in an "(x,y)" coordinate into this equation:

(y-y_{1}) = m(x-x_{1})

Choose any coordinate from the graph. In this instance, i chose "(3,0)," but any other point would work.

(y-0) = 1(x-3) --> y = 1x - 3

The equation that represents the line is y = 1x - 3

If it takes a sloth 10 minutes to climb 7.5 feet what’s its climbing speed in miles per hour
qwelly [4]

Answer:

.009  miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7.5}{10}\frac{feet}{minutes} * \frac{1}{5280}   \frac{miles}{feet} *\frac{60}{1}\frac{minutes}{hour}

This is the method you should take with unit conversions in general, just set up fractions so the units cancel out, like the 7.5 feet cancels out with the feet in the 1/5280 so miles is left on top.

What is the x-intercept of y=1/3x-5​
Ronch [10]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x-intercept(s), substitute in  0  for  y  and solve for x.

0 = 1/3 x − 5

Solve the equation.

x  =  15

This is so it makes more sense for u

Helppppp meeeeeeeee Explain how to evaluate
poizon [28]

A variable is a letter, for example x, y or z, that represents an unspecified number.

6 + x = 12

To evaluate an algebraic expression, you have to substitute a number for each variable and perform the arithmetic operations. In the example above, the variable x is equal to 6 since 6 + 6 = 12.
