Graph the equation. Label the points where the line crosses the axes. What are the points How do i even get the points? y = x +
gladu [14]
Hello, 

I'm not going to do it for you, I'll explain you how to do it, so you can LEARN something. Like that is the equation of a line, we only need two points to draw it, they can be the x-intercept an y-intercept.

When we are looking for the x-intercept, y=0
And when we are looking for the y-intercept,  x=0

Like you can see in the picture, so replace x=0 to find the y-intrcept and y=0 to find the x-intercept and join them, as you saw in the picture and there you have the graph.

If you have any trouble don't hesitate to tell me.

determine weather y varies directly with x. if so, find the constant variation and write the equation
REY [17]

Answer:

Yes, k = 1/3 and y = 1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The given line passes through the origin, hence it has equation of the form:}\\y=kx

\text{Therefore y varies directly as x.}The line passes through the point (3,1)}

\text{This implies that,}

1=k(3)\\k=\frac{1}{3}\text{Hence the constant of variation is} ⇒ \frac{1}{3}

The equation would be ⇒ y=\frac{1}{3} x

A fence around the school football field is
bagirrra123 [75]

Each team will paint 238 ft of the fence.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of fence = 1666 ft

Number of students teams = 7

Let x be the length covered by each team, therefore,

7x=1666

Dividing both sides by 7;

\frac{7x}{7}=\frac{1666}{7}\\x=238\ ft

Each team will paint 238 ft of the fence.
