What is the equation for the line

Mathematics

Pavel [41]3 years ago

The model equation for any line is
y = mx + b,
where m is slope and b is y-intercept (where the line intersects the y-axis).

The slope is change in y over change in x. You can find the slope by picking two points. The numerator will be the difference in y-coordinates, and the denominator will be the difference in x-coordinates.
As an equation, this is
slope = \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1},
where the two points are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

Let's pick two points to find the slope: (0, 5) and (3, -7).
The slope is 
\frac{-7-5}{3-0} = \frac{-12}{3} = -4

Now that we have the slope m = -4, we need to find the y-intercept b. The line crosses the y-axis at 5, so b = 5.

The equation is y = -4x + 5

I need help. Can you help me ?
natita [175]
The value of X would be 3.6 because if you divide the 4 by 2 to get the half triangle you now know the base and height for the triangle. Now you have to use tangent -1 to figure out the bottom right angle which is 56.3 degrees. Once you have the angle you can use Sin to figure out the missing side.
