U can either look at ur graph...and where the line crosses the x axis is ur x intercept...which is (-3,0)

OR

take ur equation and sub in 0 for y, and solve for x, ur x intercept.
2x - y = -6
2x - 0 = -6
2x = -6
x = -6/2
x = -3.....so ur x intercept is (-3,0)

The x-intercept is: -3
2x - y = -6
2x = -6 (cover the -y with hand: mitten rule)
x = -3

Calculate the slope of the line passing through the two colored points below. (1,4) (-1,-1)

leonid [27]

Answer:

Slope = $\frac{5}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can define the slope as the "change in y values" divided by the "change in x values".

By change in, we mean, 2nd point MINUS the first point values.

The points given is:

(1,4) & (-1,-1)

Change in y value:

-1 - 4 = -5

Change in x value:

-1 -1 = -2

Slope is -5/-2 = 5/2

There is no answer choice. The correct answer is 5/2

A skydiver is falling 176 feet per second. How many feet per minute is he falling

Vlada [557]

The correct answer here is that if the skydiver is falling 176 feet per second, he is falling 10560 feet per minute. This can be worked out quite easily, by considering that if there are 60 seconds in a minute, we then need to work out the proportion of 176 feet/1 sec = x/60 sec. You then need to multiply 60 by 176 to get 10560, which is your answer.
