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

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 line passes through the points A(n,4) and B(6,8) and is parallel to y=2x-5. What is the value of n?​
Lady_Fox [76]

The slope of <em>y</em> = 2<em>x</em> - 5 is 2. Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the line through the given points <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> is also 2. This means

(8 - 4) / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2

Solve for <em>n</em> :

4 / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2

4/2 = 6 - <em>n</em>

2 = 6 - <em>n</em>

<em>n</em> = 6 - 2

<em>n</em> = 4

Find the value of x ?<br><br> A)67<br><br> B)113<br><br> C)77<br><br> D)57
lana [24]

Answer:

<h2>A) 67</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles measures at one side of the parallelogram is 180°.

Therefore we have the equation:

x + 113 = 180             <em>subtract 113 from both sides</em>

x + 113 - 113 = 180 - 113

x = 67
