Find the solution in slope-intercept form y+7=-3(x-1) and 3x+y=-4
Svetach [21]

Answer:

The slope intercept form of both given equations is : y =  - 3 x - 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given equations are:

y +7 = -3 ( x - 1 )

and 3 x + y = - 4

Now,the SLOPE INTERCEPT FORM of any given equation is given as:

y = m x + C : here, C = Y - intercept, m = Slope

Consider equation (1):

y +7 = -3 ( x - 1 )    ⇒ y + 8 = - 3 x  + 3

or, y = -3x + 3 - 7 = -3x - 4

 ⇒ y =  -3x  -4

Hence, the slope-intercept form of the given equation is y =  -3x  -4.

Consider equation (2):

3 x + y = - 4    ⇒ y  = -4  - 3 x

 ⇒ y =  -3 x  - 4

Hence, the slope-intercept form of the given equation is y =  -3x  -4.

Which of the following is not a case of direct variation?a Number of sheets of some kind and increased when their total weight i
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two variables, x and y have a direct variation, it means that an increase in x would lead to a corresponding increase in y. A decrease on x would lead to a corresponding decrease in y.

Therefore, we would compare the scenarios to determine which is not a direct variation. The correct option is

d) Time taken will be less if number of workers are increased to complete the same work.​

The rest are direct variation scenarios
