Determine the slope and y-intercept of this equation 6X + 7 y equals 14

Mathematics

I will be trying to get the equation into slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

"m" is the slope, "b" is the y-intercept


6x + 7y = 14      Isolate the "y". First subtract 6x on both sides

7y = 14 - 6x       Divide 7 on both sides

y=2-\frac{6}{7} x          or         y = -\frac{6}{7}x+2


The slope is -\frac{6}{7}

The y-intercept is 2

The difference of two numbers is 15.Five times the smaller is the same as 9 less than twice the larger.Find the numbers
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

small number = -3

large number = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose two numbers are x and y

smaller number = x

larger number = y

Given that,

The difference of two numbers is 15

<h2>Equation 1</h2><h3>y - x  = 15</h3>

Five times the smaller is the same as 9 less than twice the larger.

<h2>Equation 2</h2><h3>5x = 9 - 2y</h3>

Solve them

-x = 15 - y

x = y -15

put value of x in equation 2

5(y - 15) = 9 - 2y

-75 + 5y = 9 - 2y

-75 - 9 = -2y - 5y

-84 =  -7y

y = 84/7

y = 12

x = 12 - 15

x = -3

Question 10: What is the RANGE? (2,0, 0,8,0, 8, 2,0)<br> O 2<br> 0<br> 8<br> 4
Studentka2010 [4]
The range is 8 and if you needed help finding the median it is 2 I think

Btw remember that median means middle, range means the difference between the highest and lowest number, the mode means what number have the most, and the mean is the total of all the values and then divide by the number of values :)
