Answer:

slope: -3

equation: y = -3x

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope is "the amount of change in the y direction when you take one step to the right".

In the first graph you can see that (0,0) and (1,-3) are on the graph. So when you step from x=0 to x=1, the graph moves 3 units down. Hence the slope is -3. The minus sign means down.

Sometimes it is difficult to see the change in the y direction when only taking 1 step to the right. That's no problem, if you take e.g., 4 steps to the right, you have to divide the y change that you found by 4.

Written in a formula it is dy/dx, a.k.a: the y change divided by the x change.

So that takes care of the slope.

In a general formula for a line y = ax + b, the slope is the letter a.

b is used to move the graph up and down. The first graph moves through (0,0) so no b needed, hence the equation y = -3x.

If b would be, say, 5, the graph would be lifted up by 5. In fact, the point (0,b) will be the point where the graph crosses the y-axis. So you find b by finding the intersection with the y axis. x must be 0 at this point.

With this approach you can solve all assignments easily.

The length of a rectangle is eight more than twice its width. The perimeter is 96 feet. Find the dimensions of the rectangle
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

The width  of the rectangle is 14'8",  and the length is 33'4"

Step-by-step explanation:

We're given two pieces of information:

The length is eight more than twice the width:

l = 2w + 4

The perimeter is 96 feet:

p = 96

We also need to apply one more piece of information that is not provided here, and that is the relationship between the perimeter of a rectangle, and it's length and width:

p = 2l + 2w

We can solve for w by plugging the other two values into the last:

p = 2w + 2l\\96 = 2w + 2(2w + 4)\\96 = 2w + 4w + 8\\88 = 6w\\3w = 44\\w = \frac{44}{3}\\w = 14\frac{2}{3}

Now we can find the length by plugging w into the first equation:

l = 2w + 4\\l = 2(14\frac{2}{3}) + 4\\l = 29\frac{1}{3} + 4\\l = 33\frac{1}{3}

One third of  a foot is four inches, so the width is 14'8" and the length is 33'4"

To make sure our answer is correct, we should plug those numbers back into the area equation and see if we're right:

p = 2l + 2w\\p = 2(33\frac{1}{3}) + 2(14\frac{2}{3})\\p = 66\frac{2}{3} + 29\frac{1}{3}\\p = 96

So we know our answer's correct
