Y=3x -2 what is the slope and y intercept

1 answer:

8 0

The slope is y=3x-2, or if you had to rewrite it, 3x-2 is the slope. The y intercept could be found using the previous formula, y=3x-2. If x were to be equal to 5 for example, you would have to multiply that by 3, then subtract it by 2, and you get your y intercept, which would equal 13 (THIS IS AN EXAMPLE).

Mario compared the slope of the function graphed below to the slope of the linear function that has an x-intercept of 1 and a y-

Lelu [443]

Answer:

The slope of the function graphed is less than the linear function that has an x-intercept of 1 and a y-intercept of -2.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that x-intercept is 1 and y-intercept is -2.

Now, the coordinate of the point is (1,0) and (0,-2).

We know that,

Slope = $\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$S_1=\dfrac{-2-0}{0-1}$

$S_1 = \dfrac{-2}{-1}$

$S_1=2$

Now, Slope of the graph given

Co-ordinate is (-5,0) and (1,2).

Using the formula of slope

$S_2 = \dfrac{2-0}{1-(-1)}$

$S_2 = \dfrac{2}{1+1}$

$S_2 = \dfrac{2}{2}$

$S_2 =1$

Now, $S_1>S_2$

Hence, the slope of function graphed is less than linear function that has an x-intercept of 1 and a y-intercept of -2.

3/5 + 1/2 =? ; 1/2 + 3/8 =? ; 1/2 + 2/5=?

slavikrds [6]

3/5+1/2=___
To add them together, convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
3/5=6/10 and 1/2=5/10
6/10+5/10=11/10, or 1 1/10

1/2+3/8=___
Same for this one- convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
1/2=4/8 and 3/8 stays the same
4/8+3/8=7/8

1/2+2/5
And again, convert both fractions so they have the same denominator.
1/2=5/10 and 2/5= 4/10
5/10+4/10=9/10

Hope this helps :-)

Look at the problems 2.3×3.68 and 23×368. How are they similar? Which problem has a greater product?

Margarita [4]

Here is your answer:

1. These equations are similar because they "both share the same numbers but one is a decimal and the other is a whole number."

2. You have to solve each equation in order to determine which number is greater:
