Which of the following represents the graph of the equation y = 1/2x?

Answer:

(B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's what we know about the equation:

- it's a positive equation

- the y-intercept is (0,0)

- the slope is 1/2

Because the equation is positive, this means the graph will increase up from left to right, so you can cross out answer choice A & D.

To find out if B or C has the right slope, you can either plug in points or use the rise/run method.

I'm going to use both methods to figure out which answer choice is correct:

<u>Plug in points method:</u>

Let's plug in the value 2 in to the equation y = 1/2x.

1/2 * 2 = 1

So at (1,2) the function should include that point.

Only B has (1,2), so that's your answer.

<u>Rise/run method:</u>

Rise/run is a method used to figure out the slope of a function or draw a function on a graph.

Rise corresponds to the numerator. In this case, 1.

Run corresponds to the denominator. In this case, 2.

We are going to start at (0,0) and go up 1 (rising 1 unit) and go 2 to the right (running 2 units). After this, we should arrive at a point on the graph.

Only answer choice B does this.

**Reminder: be careful, the each blue line on the graph ISN'T a whole number interval; it uses 1/2 intervals.

Hope that helps (●'◡'●)

slamgirl [31]

Answer:

32 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total number of cups, we have to convert the measures that are not in cups to cups and add

1 quart  = 4 cups

4 quarts = 4 x4 = 16 cups

1 pint = 2 cups

6 pints = 2 x 6 = 12 pints

total number of cups = 16 + 12 + 4 = 32 cups

Write the equation for this line in y=blanks+blank<br><br> **Please see picture**
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Equation for this line is y = -2x + (-4)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Slope intercept equation for a line is of the form y= mx +  b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Step 2:

Calculate slope of the given line.

⇒ m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - (-2))/(-3 - (-1)

⇒ m = 4/-2 = -2

Step 3:

Find y-intercept

⇒ b = - 4

Step 4:

Substitute values to get equation

⇒ y = -x -4 or y = - (x + 4)

How to convert a fraction into a mixed number in lowest terms?
saveliy_v [14]
Well at first you take the numerator (the top number) and divide it by the denominator (the lower number) that'll give you the whole number. then you would reduce only the fraction. for example lets say that we have 4/8 We know that at the very least since they are both  even numbers we can divide by so so if we do that we have 2/4 oh look, even numbers again and divide both sides by two again and you get 1/2.

Plz answer last question and im lost!
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

\pi radian

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that angle for a full circle is 2\pi

In the given figure shape is semicircle

hence,

angle for semicircle will be half of angle of full circle

thus, angle for given figure = half of  angle for a full circle = 1/2 * 2\pi = \pi

Thus, answer is \pi radian

alternatively, we also know that angle for a straight line is 180 degrees

and 180 degrees is same as \pi radian.
