The spring constant, k, in Hooke's Law has units of Newton per meter since it is a constant for the force applied per unit of length. The spring constant measures how strong and stiff the spring is. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
1. m
2. One set of ordered pairs
3. b
To show why this is, I’m going to explain how to write the equation for a linear function with two random sets of ordered pairs - (1,0) and (5, 8).
First, find the slope. The formula for slope is m = (y2 - y1)/(x2-x1) where m is the slope and (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are two sets of points.
This is why #1 is m. M is the letter used when finding slope.
To find m, I plug in the two sets of ordered pairs.
m = (8-0)/(5-1)
m = 8/4
m = 2
An equation for a line (linear function) is written in something called slope-intercept form. It looks like y = mx + b. m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (number y equals when x = 0). If m = 3 and b = 1, the equation would be y = 3x + 1.
Here, you have just solved for m and know it equals 2. Plug that value in for m.
y = 2x + b
To solve for b, plug one ordered pair in for x and y. I will use (1,0)
0 = 2(1) + b
0 = 2 + b
-2 = b
Now that you know b = -2, plug that in for b.
y = 2x - 2. Now you have the equation fo the line.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Slope-intercept form
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is actually slope-intercept form.
So first remember the order of operations. Parentheses, exponents, multiply, divide, addition, subtraction.
So we have the following problem.
-(3*2)2+4*3-2
Multiply the three and two inside the parentheses first.
-6*2+4*3-2
Next multiply any numbers that need multiplied.
-12+12-2
Next add and subtract from left to right to get an answer of...
-2
Hope this helps!
