The formula for converting Celsius temperatures to Fahrenheit temperatures is a linear equation. Water freezes at 0°C, or 32°F a

nd it boils at 100°C, or 212°F. Find the slope and y-intercept for a graph that gives degrees Celsius on the horizontal axis and degrees Fahrenheit on the vertical axis. Then write an equation in slope-intercept form that converts degrees Celsius into degrees Fahrenheit

Answer:

The formula y = mx + b sometimes appears with

different symbols.

For example, instead of x, we could use the

letter C. Instead of y, we could use the letter F.

Then the equation becomes

F = mC + b.

All temperature scales are related by linear

equations. For example, the temperature in

degrees Fahrenheit is a linear function of degrees Celsius.

Water freezes at: 0°C, 32°F

Water Boils at: 100°C, 212°F

Hope this helps!

Determine the intercepts of the line.
sergey [27]

Answer:

  y-intercept: (0, 5/2)

  x-intercept: (5/3, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is found by setting x=0 and dividing by the coefficient of y.

  0 +2y = 5

  y = 5/2

The x-intercept is found by setting y=0 and dividing by the coefficient of x.

  3x +0 = 5

  x = 5/3

The intercepts are ...

  y-intercept: (0, 5/2)

  x-intercept: (5/3, 0)

8. Write the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 15 and passes through the
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3

Explanation:

part A identification for slope:

\sf 2x + 5y = 15

\sf 5y = -2x + 15

\sf y = \frac{-2x + 15}{5}

\sf y = -\frac{2 }{5} x+3

comparing with slope intercept form: y = mx + b

we can find that here the slope is \bold -\frac{2}{5}

part B, solving the equation:

if the line is parallel, then the slope will be same.

given coordinates: ( - 10, 1 )

using the equation:

y - y₁ = m( x - x₁ )

\sf y - 1 = \bold -\frac{2}{5} (x --10)

\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -4 + 1

\sf y = \bold -\frac{2}{5} x -3

Extra information:

check the image below. this proves that the line is parallel and passes through point (-10, 1). the blue line is question line and red the answer line.
