How do you write 35 4 as a percentage

How do you solve the three forms: Slope Y-intercept form Standard Form Point slope form

Nostrana [21]

Answer:An equation in the slope-intercept form is written as

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. You can use this equation to write an equation if you know the slope and the y-intercept.

Example

Find the equation of the line

Choose two points that are on the line

Calculate the slope between the two points

m=y2−y1x2−x1=(−1)−33−(−3)=−46=−23

We can find the b-value, the y-intercept, by looking at the graph

b = 1

We've got a value for m and a value for b. This gives us the linear function

y=−23x+1

In many cases the value of b is not as easily read. In those cases, or if you're uncertain whether the line actually crosses the y-axis in this particular point you can calculate b by solving the equation for b and then substituting x and y with one of your two points.

We can use the example above to illustrate this. We've got the two points (-3, 3) and (3, -1). From these two points we calculated the slope

m=−23

This gives us the equation

y=−23x+b

From this we can solve the equation for b

b=y+23x

And if we put in the values from our first point (-3, 3) we get

b=3+23⋅(−3)=3+(−2)=1

If we put in this value for b in the equation we get

y=−23x+1

which is the same equation as we got when we read the y-intercept from the graph.

To summarize how to write a linear equation using the slope-interception form you

Identify the slope, m. This can be done by calculating the slope between two known points of the line using the slope formula.

Find the y-intercept. This can be done by substituting the slope and the coordinates of a point (x, y) on the line in the slope-intercept formula and then solve for b.

Once you've got both m and b you can just put them in the equation at their respective position.

can anyone help me with these? I'm having a lot of trouble and I'm extremely behind... I need to catch up badly!!! i have been a

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

5 and 6 are the same, so I will do one of those and you can use the example to do the other one.

Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. If we have 2 points and nothing else, we can use those 2 points in the slope formula to find the slope (the m value in the equation) and then plug that in with either one of the points to get the equation. The slope formula is:

$m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

Using our points in question 5: (2, 4) (5, 4)

$m=\frac{4-4}{5-2} =\frac{0}{3}=0$ So m = 0. Now pick a point and use it in the equation along with the m value to solve for b. I will use (2, 4):

4 = 0(2)+b and

4 = 0 + b so

b = 4.

Now we have m = 0 and b = 4 so we fill in the equation with that info:

y = 0x + 4 or simplifying,

y = 4

For question 7 they want the line parallel to y = 3x + 6 that goes through (-10, 2.5). For a line to be parallel to another line, their slopes have to be identical. The slope in y = 3x + 6 is 3. So the slope of the "new" line is going to be 3 as well. Now we will use that slope and the given point to solve for b, just like in #5:

2.5 = 3(-10) + b and

2.5 = -30 + b so

b = 32.5

Now we will fill in:

y = 3x + 32.5

For question 8 they want the line perpendicular to y = -4x - 2 that goes through (-16, -11). For a line to be perpendicular to another line, their slopes have to be opposite reciprocals. Opposite meaning the sign is opposite (positive becomes negative and negative becomes positive), and reciprocal meaning the fraction is flipped upside down. The slope in our line is -4. That means that the perpendicular slope is positive 1/4. Using that along with our point, we will again solve for b:

$-11=\frac{1}{4}(-16)+b$ which simplifies to

-11 = -4 + b so

b = -7

Now we fill in:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x-7$

For question 8, in order to find the line parallel to the given line, you need to know the slope. In the form it is currently in, we do not know the slope. We need to put it into slope-intercept form to find the slope, then we will proceeed as above. If

x + 4y = 6, then

4y = -x + 6 and, dividing by 4,

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{3}{2}$
