Every straight line graph has an equation in the same form:
y = (slope of the line) x + (y-intercept) .
-- The slope of the line is
(how far it goes UP, going left to right between any 2 points)
divided by
(how far it goes left to right between the same 2 points) .
The line on this graph has a slope of + 1/2 .
-- The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis.
The line on this graph crosses the y-axis at -1 .
y = (slope of the line) x + (y-intercept) .
y = ( 0.5 ) x ( - 1 ) .
the answer to your question there would be 12
Answer:
when you simplify 600:450 to the smallest it can be, its 4:3. For proof, multiply 4:3 by 150. 4 times 150 is 600 and 3 times 150 is 450.
Answer:
1) gradient (00) (-2 4) = y2-y1 / 2-1 = 4/-2 = -2 m = -2/1 means = m = -2 (negative slope) 2) gradient y2-y1 / x2-x1 = 3-0 / 2-0 = 3/2 = (1 1/2)/1 m = 1 1/2 (positive slope) we use the formula y-values divided by the change in the x-values. The equation of the gradient each goes like this 1) y = -2x as y is at origin nothing else to add The equation of the gradient each goes like this 2) y = 1 1/2x The equation of the point formula 1) we take the y -y1 = m (x +x 1) = y-0 = -2x (x +0) (as m = -2) y = -2(x +0) and The equation of the point formula 2) y - 0 = m ( x +x1) y - 0 = 1 1/2( x +0) = y = 1 1/2( x +0)
