How do you find the m and b in the problem y=-x+1?

Mathematics

In Y=mx+b:

m=slope. That is found by using this formula y2-y1/x2-x1

b=y-intercept. That's found by finding slope, m, and substituting that into y=(m)x+b. Then you have to solve for b and that'll be your y-intercept.

Exploring Systems of Linear Equations 2x +3y =8 and 3x+y= -2
butalik [34]

The solution of the linear equations will be ( -2, 4).

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

It is defined as the relation between two variables, if we plot the graph of the linear equation we will get a straight line.

Given equations are:-

  • 2x +3y = 8 and 3x+y= -2

Solving the equations by elimination method:-

2x +3y = 8

3x+y= -2

Multiply the second equation by 3 and subtract from the first equation.

2x +3y = 8

-9x -3y = 6

----------------

      -7x = 14

         x = -2

Out of the value of x in any one equation, we will get the value of y.

3x+y= -2

3 ( -2) + y = -2

-6 + y = -2

y = 4

The graph of the equations is also attached with the answer below.

Therefore the solution of the linear equations will be ( -2, 4).

The complete question is given below:-

the sum of three times one number, x, and five times a second number,y, is 77. if the sum of the two numbers is 19, find the two
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

x=9, y=10. (9, 10). The two numbers are 9 and 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+5y=77

x+y=19

------------------

3x+5y=77

-3(x+y)=-3(19)

---------------------

3x+5y=77

-3x-3y=-57

-------------------

2y=20

y=20/2

y=10

x+10=19

x=19-10

x=9

Use the quadratic formula to solve the equation.–x2 + 5x = 3
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Given the equation - x² + 5x = 3, which can be rewritten as:

- x² + 5x - 3 = 0

where a = -1, b = 5 and c = -3.

Quadratic formula:

\frac{-b\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{b^2\text{ - 4ac}}}{2a}

Now, we just replace the values of a, b and c on the equation above.

\frac{-5\text{ }\pm\text{ }\sqrt[]{5^2\text{ - 4(-1)(3)}}}{2(-1)}

=

\frac{5}{2}\text{ }\pm\text{ }\frac{\sqrt[]{13}}{2}
