Find the slope “m” and the y-intercept “b”. a. y = 3x − 4 b. 4x − 5y = 15

Mathematics
1 answer:
xenn [34]3 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + b

where

m is the slope

b is the y intercept

<u>First question</u>

<h3>a.)</h3>

y = 3x - 4

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope / m = 3

The y intercept / b = - 4

<u>Second question</u>

<h3>b).</h3>

4x - 5y = 15

First we must write the equation in the general equation above by making y the subject

That's

5y = 4x - 15

Divide both sides by 5

That's

\frac{5y}{5}  =  \frac{4}{5} x -  \frac{15}{5}

We have

y =  \frac{4}{5} x - 3

Comparing with the general equation above

Slope = 4/5

Y intercept = - 3

Hope this helps you

Which is an equation of the line that passes through (–1, –5) and (–3, –7)?
babymother [125]

Answer:

y = x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The line passes through (-1,-5) and (-3,-7)

The slope of a line is given by; change in y ÷ change in x

i.e slope = \frac{-7 - -5}{-3 - -1} = \frac{-2}{-2} = 1

Taking another point (x,y) on the line.

Slope will be; \frac{y - -5}{x - -1} = 1

Cross multiplying gives; y + 5 = x + 1

Simplifying this equation gives us the equation of our line which is;

y = x - 4

The five-number summary for the number of teams in each of Brad's fantasy football leagues is shown in the following table.
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The correct option is (C) 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

The five-number summary for the number of teams in each of Brad's fantasy football leagues is as follows:

Minimum: 4

<em>Q</em>₁: 7

Median: 10

<em>Q</em>₃: 14

Maximum: 18

The minimum value is the smallest value in the data set.

The first quartile (<em>Q</em>₁) is the value that is less than 75% of the observations.

The median is the middle most value of the data set. It is the value that is less than 50% of the observations.

The third quartile (<em>Q</em>₃) is the value that is less than 25% of the observations.

And the maximum value is the largest value in the data set.

So, the five-number summary suggests that about 50% of Brad's fantasy football leagues have fewer than 10 teams.

Thus, the correct option is (C).
