Answer:

y = 1/4x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line

x-4y =3

Subtract x from each side

x-4y -x = -x+3

-4y = -x+3

Divide each side by -4

-4y/-4 = -x/-4 +3/-4

y = 1/4 x -3/4

This is in the form y= mx+b where the slope is m and the y intercept is b

The slope is 1/4

We want the same slope

y = 1/4x +b

we know the y intercept is -8

y = 1/4x -8

M=yx+b (y-intercept = b) (m=slope), X-4y=3 —> root-3,0 vertical intercept- (0, -3/4)

Find x- and y-intercepts. Write ordered pairs representing the points where the line crosses the axes. 2x+3y=6

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

x-intercept: (3, 0)

y-intercept: (0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

For a function like:

y = f(x)

The x-intercept is the value of x when y = 0

the y-intercept is the value of y when x = 0

Also remember that an ordered pair is written as (x, y).

In this case we have the equation:

2*x + 3*y = 6

For the x-intercept, we just replace y by zero in the equation, then we get:

2*x + 3*0 = 6

Solving this for x, we get:

2*x = 6

x = 6/2 = 3

Then in this case, the ordered pair for the x-intercept is (3, 0)

For the y-intercept, we just need to replace x by zero in the equation:

2*0 + 3*y = 6

Solving this for y, we get:

3*y = 6

y = 6/3 = 2

Then the ordered pair for the y-intercept is (0, 2)

Distance between (-3,1) (1,5)

Mamont248 [21]

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will use the distance formula.

$d=\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$

For our (x1, y1), we will use (-3, 1). For our (x2, y2), we will use (1, 5). Now let's plug in our numbers and solve the problem.

$d=\sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(5-1)^2}$

$d=\sqrt{4^2+4^2}$

$d=\sqrt{16 + 16}$

$d=\sqrt{32}$

$d=5.657$

So, the distance between (-3,1) and (1,5) is 5.657 units.
