Slope: what is the slope?

1 answer:

Len [333]3 years ago

3 0

Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

So basically I located the y-intercept first. Where is that? At the point (0,-2). Now from there, I found the nearest point on an intersecting grid line, in this case it would be (-1,0). So from the y-intercept, I looked at how many spaces I would have to move to get to (-1,0). You would have to go up 2 spaces and to the left 1 space. This is also written as 2/-1. Simplify this and you get -2! Hope this helped!

The value of 9−y is twice the value of y. What is the value of y?

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

9 - y = 2y

<u>Step 1: Add y to both sides</u>

9 - y + y = 2y + y

9 = 3y

<u>Step 2: Divide both sides by 3</u>

9 / 3 = 3y / 3

3 = y

Answer: y = 3

What is the equation of the line through (5,1) with a slope of -3?

PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is given by the formula $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Where $x_1$ is the x-coordinate (it is given as 5)

$y_1$ is the y-coordinate (it is given as 1), and

m is the slope (it is given as -3)

Plugging in all the info into the formula we have:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-1=-3(x-5)$

From the answer choices, we see that C is the correct answer.
