What is the slope of the line represented by the equation y = x – 3?

2 answers:

5 0

The line is given in the form:
$y=mx+b$
Where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

Comparing the given line to the generic form we can see that $m=1$ , which is the slope.

You could also get this/check the answer by graphing the equation.

Hi there! The answer is "1".

The general formula of a line in slope-intercept form is y = mx + n. In this formula m (and therefore the number in front of the variable x) represents the slope of the line.

We have the following formula in the question: y = x – 3. To find its slope we must look at the number in front of the x (as I already mentioned). Since there is no visible number we must realise that the number in front of x is 1. Therefore, the slope of the line is 1.

Answer: the original price of the skirt is $24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the original price of the skirt. if the original price of the blouse is 18, then the original price of the skirt and blouse is (x + 18)

Jade buys a blouse and a skirt for 3/4of their original price. It means that the amount at which she bought the skirt and blouse is

0.75(x + 18)

Applying the distributive property, it becomes

0.75x + 13.5

Jade pays a total of 31.50 for the two items. It means that

0.75x + 13.5 = 31.5

0.75x = 31.5 - 13.5

0.75x = 18

x = 18/0.75

x = $24

0.75 is equal to 6\8
5.8 is > 4\5
a decimal greater than 5\8 is 1.2
0.2 > 1\4
0.7>0.6
a decimal smaller than 6\8 is 0.01
The one that is not equal to -7\5 is -11\5
The answer is D

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

f(x)=2x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The output is f(x). The input is x.

The prompt says to multiply the input by 2, so 2x.

Then subtract 1 to get f(x).

Hope this helps!

Find the distance between the points given. (0,6) and (5,12)

Elan Coil [88]

$d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^{2} + (y_2 - y_1)^{2}} \\d = \sqrt{(5 - 0)^{2} + (12 - 6)^{2}} \\d = \sqrt{(5)^{2} + (6)^{2}} \\d = \sqrt{25 + 36} \\d = \sqrt{61} \\d = 7.8 \\\\(x - h)^{2} + (y - k)^{2} = r^{2} \\(x - 5)^{2} + (y - 6)^{2} = 7.8^{2} \\(x - 5)^{2} + (y - 6)^{2} = 61 \\(h, k) = (5, 6)$
