The standard form for an equation is y=mx+b. You find the slope by using the formula of rise over run. This means that for problem 6 you first look to see if its positive or negative slope. The slope is positive if the line is going uphill and if its going downhill its negative. The slope would be negative for number 6 because it is going downhill. Then for the actualy slope you would start with rise. So you look at the point (0,1) and go up 3 until you hit the line of the other point and run over 2. So your slope would be -3/2.
Answer: B) Linear; it can be written as y = -3x-6
We subtract 6 from both sides to go from the original equation to -3x-6 = y
Then we flip both sides to end up with y = -3x-6
This is in slope intercept form y = mx+b with m = -3 as the slope and b = -6 as the y intercept.
Answer:
The first graph shows a slope of 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the slope is 3, it's actually 3/1 because of rise/run. So you find any point on the graph that's directly between two lines, like (-1,-5). Since the line is positive, you would go right one and up three. Then you see if that point is directly between two lines. The next point is (0, -2). If you did the same on the second graph, it wouldn't match up.
The formula for finding the area of a rug:
Plugging in the values we know, we can solve for s.
Take the square root of both sides.
is approximately equal to 8.89
So, 8.89 feet is the answer.
Answer:
slope is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
1. go to geogebra.org/classic (this is a graphing calculator)
2. enter your two points by using the second button on the top of the screen
3. connect a line from one point to the other using the 3rd button on the top of the screen
4. click on the line and it shall tell you the equation, including the slope :O))))
the slope is -2 and the equation is y = -2x + 18
