Answer:

Definition and Equation

This form of the equation of a line is called the slope-intercept form. The y-intercept of a line (b), is the y-coordinate of the point where the graph of the line crosses the y-axis. As we have seen in the Wild About Cupcakes example, it is the value of y when x = 0.

Hope it helped u if yes mark me BRAINLIEST!

Answer: Hi!

Slope - intercept form is a type of equation (or formula.) It shows you how to graph a line and find the slope and y - intercept of that line.

Slope - intercept form looks like this: y = mx + b

M represents the slope of the line. B represents the y - intercept.

The y - intercept is where the line would intercept the y - axis. The slope is kind of like the angle the line is at (For example: it <em>slopes </em>downward.)

Hope this helps!

Is point (2,1) on the the line represented by the equation x+2y=5
Sphinxa [80]
To check if this point lies on the line, plug in a 2 for x and a y for 1 and solve

x+2y=5
2+2(1)=5
4=5

Since this statement isn't true, then the point doesn't lie on the line

Hope this helps

Given the expression ‘6 more than twice a number’, what is the value of the expression if the number is equal to 5?
stepan [7]

Answer:

Expression: 2x + 6

Value of the expression when x = 5: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first focus on the expression: '6 more than twice a number'. Twice a number is the same as saying two times a number. Let's have that number be represented by x. Twice a number would mean 2x, and 6 more than that would just be 2x + 6.

We'll then plug in 5 for x to get the value of the expressinn:

2(5) + 6 = 10 + 6 = 16
