How does y=mx+c work

Mathematics
1 answer:

Ok so, y = mx + c is the equation of a line
When a graph is written in this form, m is the slope/gradient and c is the y - intercept.
This form is needed when a question asks for the equation.
Lets say they give 2 sets of coordinates, we can use the point slope formula to find the slope (m)

point slope formula:
(y₂ - y₁) = m(x₂ - x₁)

Then we substitute any of the two set of coordinates to find c, the y - intercept. 

So the line has a gradient of m and y - intercept of c

devlian [24]
Since 1/2 is equal to a half, you divide 50 and 40 by 2 and you'll get 25 and 20 and then you subtract 25 and 20 and you get 5 which is the answer!

Andre and Diego were each trying to solve 2x+6=3x-8 Describe the first step they each make to the equation
avanturin [10]
The first step was the combine the like terms; in this example he is subtracting the 3x on both sides of the =.

If you were to solve the equation it would look like this:

2x+6=3x-8
-3x -3x

-x+6=-8
-6 -6

-x=-14
/-1 /-1

x=14

Can someone please help me with this question?
liq [111]
To get the solution we are looking for we need to point out what we know.
1. We assume that 55 is 100% because its the output value of the task.
2. We assume that the x is the value we are looking for. 
3. If 100% = 55 so we can write it down as 100%=55 
4. We know that x% = 44 of the output value so we can write it as x%=44.
5. Now we have two simple equations: 1) 100%=55 2) x%=44 where left sides of both of them have the same units and both right sides have the same units so we can do something like that 100%/x%=55/44.
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation and we will get the answer.
7. Solution for 44 is what percent of 55 100%/x%=55/44 (100/x)*x=(55/44)*x we multiply both sides of the equation by x 100= 1.25*x we divide both sides of the equation by (1.25) to get x 100/1.25=x 80=x now we have: 44 is 80% of 55! 

Quick answer = 44 is 80% of 55
Hope this helps! ;D

If x2 = 60, what is the value of x?
MArishka [77]

Answer:

x = ±2sqrt(15)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 = 60

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(60)

x = ±sqrt(60)

x = ±sqrt(4 *15)

x = ±2sqrt(15)
