Explain how to write a linear equation for a line on a graph.

Mathematics

WARRIOR [948]2 years ago

Use y = mx + b.

<u>m represents the slope of the line.</u>

the slope equals rise over run.

in other words, count the number of vertical and horizontal units from one point to another point on the line.

if you have the y-intercept and a point, you can also solve for m.

<u>b represents the y-intercept.</u>

find the point on the graph where x = 0.

b is the value of y.

for example, if the y-intercept was (0,4) then b would equal 4.

<u>x and y represent a point on the graph.</u>

pick any point on the graph and plug it in.

for example, if the point (1,2) is on the graph then x = 1 and y = 2.

Linear model function
sveticcg [70]

Using equations of linear model function, the number of hours Jeremy wants to skate is calculated as 3.

<h3>How to Write the Equation of a Linear Model Function?</h3>

The equation that can represent a linear model function is, y = mx + b, where m is the unit rate and b is the initial value.

Equation for Rink A:

Unit rate (m) = (35 - 19)/(5 - 1) = 16/4 = 4

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 19) and m = 4 into y = mx + b to find b:

19 = 4(1) + b

19 - 4 = b

b = 15

Substitute m = 4 and b = 15 into y = mx + b:

y = 4x + 15 [equation for Rink A]

Equation for Rink B:

Unit rate (m) = (39 - 15)/(5 - 1) = 24/4 = 6

Substitute (x, y) = (1, 15) and m = 6 into y = mx + b to find b:

15 = 6(1) + b

15 - 6 = b

b = 9

Substitute m = 6 and b = 9 into y = mx + b:

y = 6x + 9 [equation for Rink B]

To find how many hours (x) both would cost the same (y), make both equation equal to each other

4x + 15 = 6x + 9

4x - 6x = -15 + 9

-2x = -6

x = 3

The hours Jeremy wants to skate is 3.

Sophie can type 128 words in 3 minutes. How many minutes will it take her to type 576 words
Alja [10]

Answer:

13. 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple proportion problem. Make two fractions where one item is always on the top and the other on the bottom.

\frac{3 min}{128 words} = \frac{x min}{ 576 words}

Now, cross multiply (multiply the two numbers diagonal from each other and divide  the diagonal with the x value)

576 x 3 = 1, 728

1, 728 / 128 = 13.5
