In the equation y=mx, how do you find m on a graph?

Mathematics

Sonbull [250]3 years ago

Answer:

m is the slope of the equation y=mx+b. TO find the slope you look at the y intercept of the graph, b, and from that point find how much up/down and to the right/left you need to go. For example from point 0, 4, the y intercept, to another point on the graph (any point on the line would work) 2, 8 , I need to go up 4 units and to the right 2 units. The slope is 4/2 or just 2.'

If this is too confusing just find two points on the line in a graph and folow this equation: y2-y1 / x2-x1

where y2 is the y value of the second point, y1 is the y value of the first point, x1 is the x value of the first point and x2 is the value of x in the second point

Answer:

In the equation y=mx+b, m is the slope. The formula for slope is \frac{y_{1}-y_{2}  }{x_{1}-x_{2}  }, so to solve find any two points on the graph and plug them into the formula. You could also count the difference, remember that slope is the change in y over the change in x. For example, if y increases by 3 units and x increases by 2 units then the slope is 3/2.

How do you add add fraction with a different denominator?
kenny6666 [7]

Find the LCM (least common multiple) of the denominators, and use that as the denominator for the two fractions.

Ex.

\frac{3}{4} +\frac{2}{3}

LCM (3, 4) is 12

\frac{9}{12} +\frac{8}{12}

=\frac{17}{12}

Complete the coordinate proof of the theorem.
mojhsa [17]
C(a,b), because the x-coordinate( first coordinate) is a (seeing as it is situated directly above point B, which also has an x-coordinate of a) and the y-coordinate ( second coordinate) is b (seeing as it is situated on the same horizontal level as point D, which also has a y-coordinate of b)

the length of AC can be calculated with the theorem of Pythagoras:

length AB = a - 0 = a
length BC = b - 0 = b

seeing as the length of AC is the longest, it can be calculated by the following formula:

It is called "Pythagoras' Theorem" and can be written in one short equation:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (^ means to the power of by the way)

in this case, A and B are lengths AB and BC, so lenght AC can be calculated as the following:

a^2 + b^2 = (length AC)^2
length AC = √(a^2 + b^2)

Extra information: Seeing as the shape of the drawn lines is a rectangle, lines AC and BD have to be the same length, so BD is also √(a^2 + b^2). But that is also stated in the assignment!

Hey can some one help me with this
Leno4ka [110]
Hello!

First you have to find the surface area of what he is painting

Finding the areas of all the rectangles he is painting

14 * 8 = 112
14 * 8 = 112
12 * 8 = 96
12 * 8 = 96
12 * 14 = 168

Add all these up

112 + 112 + 96 + 96 + 168 = 584

Divide this by the amount of area a pint of paint covers

584 / 90 = 6.4888...

He needs 7 pints of paint because he needs more than 6

Multiply this by the cost of 1 pint of pint

7 * 7.98 = 55.86

The answer is $55.86

Hope this helps!
