How do I find b in the Slope-Intercept Form?

Mathematics
1 answer:
dlinn [17]3 years ago
5 0
The slope intercept form is
y = Mx + b
x and y are the coordinates, and m is the slope. If you don’t have b, you can plug in the other numbers you do have.

EXAMPLE:
A line has a slope of -3 and a coordinate of (1, 6). What is the y-intercept (b)?

y = Mx + b
6 = -3(1) + b
6 = -3 + b
9 = b

it raind during 40% of the days of Chrissys vacation. if it rained on 2 days how many days long was chrissys vacation
Luden [163]
Chrissy's vacation would have been 5 days total. To find this, you can set up a proportion. I did 40 over 100, (40%), equals 2 over x. You cross multiply 2 and 100. You take that number, 200 in this case, and divide it by 40 to get the variable by itself. This would leave you with what the variable equals, 5.

140% of what number is 35?
Elodia [21]
In order to solve this, all you have to do is divide 35 by 1.4 (because you need to move the decimal places over to the left two places when changing from a percentage to a decimal.) When you do that, you get 25, so 35 is 140% of 25. I hope this helps! :)

a is negative and it's not a digit.
