How do you solve the three forms: Slope Y-intercept form Standard Form Point slope form

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nostrana [21]3 years ago

Answer:An equation in the slope-intercept form is written as

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. You can use this equation to write an equation if you know the slope and the y-intercept.

Example

Find the equation of the line

Choose two points that are on the line

Calculate the slope between the two points

m=y2−y1x2−x1=(−1)−33−(−3)=−46=−23

We can find the b-value, the y-intercept, by looking at the graph

picture28

b = 1

We've got a value for m and a value for b. This gives us the linear function

y=−23x+1

In many cases the value of b is not as easily read. In those cases, or if you're uncertain whether the line actually crosses the y-axis in this particular point you can calculate b by solving the equation for b and then substituting x and y with one of your two points.

We can use the example above to illustrate this. We've got the two points (-3, 3) and (3, -1). From these two points we calculated the slope

m=−23

This gives us the equation

y=−23x+b

From this we can solve the equation for b

b=y+23x

And if we put in the values from our first point (-3, 3) we get

b=3+23⋅(−3)=3+(−2)=1

If we put in this value for b in the equation we get

y=−23x+1

which is the same equation as we got when we read the y-intercept from the graph.

To summarize how to write a linear equation using the slope-interception form you

Identify the slope, m. This can be done by calculating the slope between two known points of the line using the slope formula.

Find the y-intercept. This can be done by substituting the slope and the coordinates of a point (x, y) on the line in the slope-intercept formula and then solve for b.

Once you've got both m and b you can just put them in the equation at their respective position.

The composite figure is made up of a triangular prism and a pyramid. The two solids have congruent bases.
kolezko [41]
The correct question is
The composite figure is made up of a triangular prism and a pyramid. The two solids have congruent bases. What is the volume of the composite figure<span>?
</span>
the complete question in the attached figure

we know that
[volume of a cone]=[area of the base]*h/3
[area of the base]=22*10/2-------> 110 units²
h=19.5 units
[volume of a cone]=[110]*19.5/3------> 715 units³

[volume of a triangular prism]=[area of the base]*h
[area of the base]=110 units²
h=25 units
[volume of a a triangular prism]=[110]*25------------> 2750 units³

[volume of a the composite figure]=[volume of a cone]+[volume of a <span>a triangular prism]

</span>[volume of a the composite figure]=[715]+[2750]-------> 3465 units³

the answer is
The volume of a the composite figure is 3465 units³

How many tissues should the kimberly clark corporation package of kleenex contain? researchers determined that 60 tissues is the
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 60

For the alternative hypothesis,

h1: µ < 60

This is a left tailed test

Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 100,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 52

µ = population mean = 60

s = samples standard deviation = 22

t = (52 - 60)/(22/√100) = - 3.64

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.00023

We would reject the null hypothesis if α = 0.05 > 0.00023
