If you change the slope in the equation y= 5x + 7 to y = 2x + 7 how will its graph change?

1 answer:

6 0

If we see an equation in the form y=mx+c (where m and c are just some numbers), but the important thing is that the left hand side is "y" and not "2y" or "3y", then the m is the slope.

So y=5x+7 has a slope of 5 (the number before the x)
And y=2x+7 has a slope of 2 (the number before the x)

So as you move from left to right, the one with greater slope will increase y value faster. Just like if you were climbing two mountains. If you went for 1 kilometre up a really steep mountain, you would be higher up than if you went for 1 kilometre up a less steep mountain.

Another way of saying this is that by changing an equation from slope 5 (steep) to slope=2 (less steep), then "It will increase at a slower rate than before"

A) Add three line segments (AD, CF, BE) to the regular hexagon.

B) The area of each triangle of the regular hexagon is 35.1 in².

C) The area of the regular hexagon is 210.6 in².

<h3>How to calculate the area of a regular hexagon</h3>

In geometry, regular hexagons are formed by six regular triangles with a common vertex. We decompose the hexagon in six equilateral triangles by adding three line segments (AD, CF, BE).The area of each triangle is found by the following equation:

A = 0.5 · (9 in) · (7.8 in)

A = 35.1 in²

And the area of the regular polygon is six times the former result, that is, 210.6 square inches.

Will upvote 4,7,12,19,31,... does this classify as a arithmetic, geometric, or neither

spayn [35]

To find if a series is either geometric or arithmetic:
it must satisfy this property:

Arithmetic:

a(n+1) - a(n) = const

Geometric:

a(n+1)/a(n) = const

In your case:

r1 = 7 -4 = 3

r2 = 12 - 7 = 5

r1 != r2 (not arirthmetic)

Geometric check:

r1 = 7/4

r2 = 12/7

r1 != r2 (not Geometric)

so neither.
