Sadly is right. You must have practiced this stuff in middle school
until it was coming out of your ears. Fortunately, you have a chance
to relearn it now. You should do that ... it'll be important in any math
course you ever take.
'm' is the slope of the line on the graph.
The slope is
(the change in 'y' between any two points on the line)
divided by
(the change in 'x' between the same two points).
You can choose any two points on the line, and the slope is always the same.
To make it easy, look at the two points on this graph where the line crosses
the x-axis and the y-axis.
Going between these two points ...
-- the line goes up, from y=0 to y=4. The change in 'y' is 4 .
-- the line goes to the right, from x=-2 to x=0. The change in 'x' is 2 .
'm' = the slope = (4)/(2) = 2 .
The "y-intercept" is the place where the line crosses the y-axis.
On this graph, that's the point where y=4 .
The equation of EVERY straight line on ANY graph is:
Y = (the slope) times 'x' + (the y-intercept) .
So the equation of THIS line on THIS graph is
Y = 2x + 4 .
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the expression:
And we want to find its sign given that a>0 and b<0.
Notice that the expression is already negative since we have -4.
a>0 means that a is positive. Therefore, we can ignore it since it won’t do anything.
b<0 means that b is negative. Therefore, we will have two negatives being multiplied together. Hence, this will make a positive.
Therefore, the sign of our expression will be positive.
We can see this with an example. Let a=1 (1>0) and let b=-1 (-1<0). Then:
So, the sign is positive.
Hence, the answer is A.
Answer:
2,406.16452 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
(1/3)*(17.2*17.2)*24.4
98.61333*24.4
2,406.16452cm
The relationship between centimeters and inches is linear. The equation in the relationship is:
y= 2.54x , with x as inches and y as centimeters.
The graph for this equation results to a straight line. This equation has a degree of one.
Answer: 3 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation can be set up according to slope form: y=mx+b where x represents cost per round.
$70 = $7.51x + $47.47
Subtract 47.47 to both sides: $22.53 = $7.51x
Divide both sides by 7.51: 3 = x
