Find the slope of the line that passes through (3, 7) and (6, 8).
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Slope = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1: Define general form of equation of line</em>

An equation of a straight line on two-dimensional plane could be represented in form of: y = Mx + b, with M is slope and b is y-intercept

<em>Step 2: Set up the system to solve for slope M of equation of line</em>

That equation passes 2 points, which are represented in form of (x, y), (3, 7) and (6, 8).

Substitute these values of x and y into the original equation in step 1:

7 = 3M + b

8 = 6M + b

<em>Step 3: Solve the system of equations in step 2 for M</em>

Subtract 1st equation from 2nd equation:

8 - 7 = 6M - 3M + b - b

Simplify both sides:

1 = 3M

Divide both sides by 3:

=> M = 1/3

Hope this helps!

Put y-x=-8 of a line into slope-intercept form, simplifying all fractions.
grigory [225]

Answer: y= x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Slope intercept form has a general formula of y=mx +b
  • m represents the slope of the line
  • b represents the value of the lines y-intercept

  • the equation must be rearranged into the general formula by isolating for 'y'

y-x=-8

  • to remove the x from the left side of the equation the opposite operation must be done to both sides

y-x+x=-8+x

  • the negative and positive x cancel out on the left side, leaving us with the equation with y by itself
  • now you can rearrange to put the equation into y=mx+b

Final Answer: y=x-8
