The Y-intercept is -4 because it's located on the y-axis you can remember that the y-axis is up and down the x-axis is side to side.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is the tangent of the angle it makes with the x-axis. The given line has a slope of -1/3, so the lines we want will have slopes of ...
m1 = tan(arctan(-1/3) +45°) = 0.5 . . . . . using a calculator
m2 = tan(arctan(-1/3) -45°) = -2
Of course, these two lines are perpendicular to each other, so their slopes will have a product of -1: (0.5)(-2) = -1.

We can use the point-slope form of the equation for a line to write the desired equations:
y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
<u>Line 1</u>:
y = 1/2(x -2) +3
y = 1/2x +2
<u>Line 2</u>:
y = -2(x -2) +3
y = -2x +7
Answer:
y/x
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: y/x
water/time = unit rate = y/x
A, 39
You can get the average score by adding up all the total scores, (33, 41, 33, 45 and 43) and dividing that by the total number of scores, 5. 195 (total score)/5 (number of scores)= 39.
4x-2y=8 ==> y=2x-4 (to better show you what I mean)
2 lines are parallel if they have the same slope (m the coefficient of x).
So y=mx + b // y =2x-4 means m=2 & y=mx + b, becomes y=2x + b.
Moreover they are telling us that this function passes by (-2,1), where -2 represents x & 1, represents y. To calculate b , replace x & y by their values:
y=2x+b ==> 1 = 2(- 2) + b==> 1 = -4 + b ==> b= 5. Finally the equation is
y=-2x+5
