N the slope-intercept form you use the slope of the line and the y-intercept to express the linear function.
y=mx+b
y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
Example
Graph the equation
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
rewrite in slope-intercept form
y=2x+1
y=2x+1
Identify the slope and the y-intercept
m = 2 and b = 1
Plot the point corresponding to the y-intercept, (0,1)
picture23
The m-value, the slope, tells us that for each step to the right on the x-axis we move 2 steps upwards on the y-axis (since m = 2)

And once you have your second point you can just draw a line through the two points and extend it in both directions.
picture25
You can check to see that the line you've drawn is the correct one by substituting the coordinates of the second point into the original equation. If the equation holds true than the second point is correct.
Our second point = (1, 3)
y−2x=1
y−2x=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
3−2⋅1=3−2=1
Our second point is a solution to the equation i.e. the line we drew is correct.
A line that passes through the origin has a y-intersect of zero, b = 0, and represents a direct variation.
y=mx
y=mx
In a direct variation the nonzero number m is called the constant of variation.
You can name a function, f by using the function notion
f(x)=mx+b
f(x)=mx+b
f(x) is another name for y and is read as "the value of f at x" or "f of x". You can use other letters than f to name functions.
A group of functions that have similar characteristics are called a family of functions. All functions that can be written on the form f(x) = mx + b belong to the family of linear functions.
The most basic function in a family of functions is called the parent function. The parent function of all linear functions is
f(x)=x

Answer:
X is 36 and y is 48.
Step-by-step explanation:
So a couple of things here: both triangles are equal, and triangles always add up to 180 degrees. If we do some math:
180-108-48=24
This means that 2x-y needs to equal 24. We know what y is, it's 48 since both triangles are equal. Lets do some more math to find x.
48+24=72
72 divided by 2 = 36. 36 is the answer for x.
The <u>correct answer</u> is:
18.
Explanation:
There were 303 people surveyed total.
There were 64 people with brown eyes and black hair; that makes the percentage of the population 64/303 = 21.12% ≈ 21%.
There were 9 people with blue eyes and black hair; that makes the percentage of the population 9/303 = 2.97% ≈ 3%.
This means the percentage of students with brown eyes and black hair was greater than the percentage of students with blue eyes and black hair by:
21-3 = 18%.
