What happens to a line when the y-intercept is changed? Check all that apply. A. As the y-intercept increases, the graph of the

line shifts up. B. as the y-intercept decreases, the graph of the line shifts left. C. As the y-intercept increases, the graph of the line gets steeper. D. As the y-intercept decreases, the graph of the line shifts down. E. as the y-intercept increases, the graph of the line shifts right.

<span>Answer: two options apply: A and D.
</span>
<span /><span /><span>A. As the y-intercept increases, the graph of the line shifts up.

D. As the y-intercept decreases, the graph of the line shifts down.
</span><span />

<span>Justification:


</span><span>1) Take the slope-intercept equation of the line: y = f(x) = mx + b</span>
<span /><span>
</span><span>2) The y-intercept is b
</span>
<span /><span /><span>
3) When b is increased, f(x) will increases too, that is f(x) will be higher or its graph will be shifted up, which is what the option A. states.
</span><span />

<span>4) When b is decreased, f(x) will decreases too, that is f(x) will be lower or its graph will be shifted dOwn, which is what the option D states.
</span><span />

<span>5) Regarding the options B and E, which deal with motions in the horizontal direction (left or righT), nothing can be said, as the effect of a change in the y -intercept on the horizontal direction will depend on the slope.
</span><span />

<span>6) Regarding the option C, a change in the y-intercept does not change the slope (the steep of the line).

If the radius of a circle is 10 feet, how long is the arc subtended by an angle measuring 81°?
Kaylis [27]
<span>The length of an arc, L = theta/360 * 2 * pie * r Where theta = 81 and r = 10ft = 3.048m So length = 81/360 * 2 * pie * 3.048 L = * 0.225 * 2 * pie * 3.048 L = 1.37 * pie L = pie. Option A</span>
