How to find Gradient and y intercept

1 answer:

4 0

Gradient:

Find two points on the line and with those two points, calculate the difference in height(y coordinates) divided by the difference in width(x coordinates). If you get a positive value, then your line will be uphill.

Y-intercept:

Use y=mx+b
Find the slope first using the slope formula which is y2-y1 OVER x2-x1. Once you have that, take a point from the line and substitute the x and y coordinates along with the slope into y=mx+b.

So if your slope was 2/1 and your point was (4,8), it would be:

8=2(4)+b
8=6+b
*subtract 6 from both sides*
b=2

Determine if the matrix is symmetric.

Amanda [17]

Answer:

because this is equal to the given matrix, the given matrix is symmetric.

Step-by-step explanation:

A symmetric matrix is a square matrix which has same number of rows and columns. Square matrix is equal to transpose. Equal matrices have equal dimensions. The given matrix is symmetric because the rows and columns are equally distributed.

I know it's late but im having trouble in math.I need an exper to help for BRAINLEST and extra points

frez [133]

Answer:

B'(- 2, 2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the translation rule (x, y ) → (x + 3, y - 2 )

This means add 3 to the original x- coordinate and subtract 2 from the original y- coordinate, that is

B(- 5, 4 ) → B'(- 5 + 3, 4 - 2 ) → B'(- 2, 2 )

What is the slope?<br>if possible can you explain?

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

$m = \frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a graph is also known as its gradient, which is the steepness of the graph.

If we are given two points on the line, we can find the slope by taking rise/ run, which is the ratio of the change in y-coordinate against the change in the x-coordinate. This can also be written as a formula:

$\boxed{slope = \frac{y1 - y2}{x1 - x2} }$

☆ (x₁, y₁) is the first coordinate and (x₂, y₂) is the second coordinate

In this question, we are given the equation of the line. This equation is already in the slope-intercept form (y= mx +c) since the coefficient of y is 1 and all the other terms are on the other side of the equal sign. In the slope-intercept form, m is the slope while c is the y-intercept.

m= ⅘ since the coefficient of x is ⅘ in the given equation (when the equation is in the slope-intercept form).
