-3w - 7 w =5
Divide both sides by -10
-10w =5
w = -1/2
Hello there!
A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.
A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.
The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.
The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.
I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
Convert this to slope-intercept form
subtract 1/4x,
3/4y=1-1/4x
then multiply my 4/3
y=4/3-1/3x
y=-1/3x+4/3
4/3 is the y-intercept, so when you're graphing begin with it. Then find another point on the graph according to the slope. Plot point (0,4/3) then plot a point with a y-value 1 less and an x-value 3 more. (slope is sometimes called rise over run because it is a ratio of the change in the y-value divided by the change in the x-value) Plot point (3,1/3). Connect the dots with a ruler and draw a line.
