Answer:
True. The graph will shift down if we subtract a number from "b"
Step-by-step explanation:
"b" represents the y-intercept, or how high up on the y axis the graph intersects.
If we don't change anything except for the y-intercept, then the graph should only move up or down.
Because we are decreasing the value of "b" the y intercept will decrease, dragging the graph of y down.
Answer:
c
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that
the equation of a line in <span>slope intercept form is--------------> y=mx+b
where
m-----------> is the slope
b-----------> is the y-intercept point when x=0
</span><span>y+7=-1/7(x+4)---------> y+7=(-1/7)x-4/7
</span>y+7=(-1/7)x-4/7------> y=(-1/7)x-4/7-7------> y=(-1/7)x-(53/7)
the answer is
y=(-1/7)x-(53/7)-------------> this is the equation of a line in slope intercept form
m=(-1/7)=-0.14
b=(-53/7)=-7.57
y=-0.14x-7.57see the attached figure
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:

There are numerous ways to work a problem like this. One is shown above, where we multiply by the inverse of the denominator.
For this you can always use a calculator. Be sure to use parentheses around the denominator fraction.
