For the first, simply plug in the value of x given (x = 2) into the equation:
So, 8 would be your answer.
For the second, the sum of x and 2 would be expressed as x + 2. Twice this sum would be written as 2(x+2). Finally, 8 less than twice that sum would be written as 2(x+2) - 8, which would be your expression.
For the last question, the coefficient refers to the number directly in front of the variable, x. So you need only to check what the x would simplify to in each equation and look for the expression where x has no coefficient (i.e., its coefficient is 1). For Hunter, the coefficient would be 15 (5 × 3x = 15x); for Michael, the coefficient would be 11 (6x + 5x = 11x); for Nate, the coefficient would be 1 (x = 1x); and for Spencer, the coefficient would be 2 (2x = 2x). Thus, Nate's expression has a coefficient of 1 when simplified.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
Slope formula:
Given points: (-6, 4), (6, 10)
(-6, 4) = (x1, y1)
(6, 10) = (x2, y2)
To write the equation in slope-intercept form, we need to find the slope(m) and the y-intercept(b) of the equation.
First, let's find the slope. To do this, input the given points into the slope formula:
Simplify:
10 - 4 = 6
6 - (-6) = 6 + 6 = 12
The slope is .
To find the y-intercept, input the slope and one of the given points(in this example I'll use point (6, 10)) into the equation and solve for b:
10 = 3 + b
7 = b
The y-intercept is 7.
Now that we know the slope and the y-intercept, we can write the equation:
