Answer:

I honestly used google.

Step-by-step explanation:

It means: In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis). This useful form of the line equation is sensibly named the "slope-intercept form".

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is = rise/run or y2-y1/x2-x1

x1,y1 stands for the coordinates of the first point on the line

x2,y2 stands for the coordinates of the second point on the line

F(x) = 3x + 1; g(x) = 5x - 1<br> Find f/g. (1 point)

zysi [14]

Answer:

$\frac{f}{g} =\frac{3x+1}{5x-1}$

$x\neq \frac{1}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

$f(x)=3x+1$

$g(x)=5x-1$

we have to find f/g

we can write as

$\frac{f}{g} =\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}$

now, we can plug values

and we get

$\frac{f(x)}{g(x)} =\frac{3x+1}{5x-1}$

so,

$\frac{f}{g} =\frac{3x+1}{5x-1}$

we know that denominator can not be zero

so,

$5x-1\neq 0$

now, we can solve for x

$5x-1+1\neq 0+1$

$5x\neq 1$

Divide both sides by 5

and we get

$x\neq \frac{1}{5}$

Answer:

y - 1 = $\frac{5}{3}$ (x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

Here m = $\frac{5}{3}$ and (a, b) = (2, 1), thus

y - 1 = $\frac{5}{3}$ (x - 2) ← equation of line

4x+7=23. explain the steps you would use to solve the equation for x.

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. isolate the variable by subtracting 7 on both sides: 4x=23-7

2. simplify: 4x=16

3. divide both sides by 4: x=16/4

4. simplify: x=4
