Re-write in slope-intercept form of an equation: x- 2y = 4

Mathematics

Answer:

The final equation is \bold{y=-\frac{1}{2}x -2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

To rewrite an equation in slope-intercept form, our equation must be in \text{y = mx + b} form. This means the <em>y</em>-variable must be on the left side of the equation and the slope and y-intercept must be on the right side of the equation. We can do this by moving the equation around.

\text{y = mx + b  \ \   This is the equation we want to reach.}\\\\\text{x - 2y = 4 \ \ This is what we are given.}\\\\\text{-2y = -x + 4 \ \ Move the x to the right by subtracting it from both sides.}\\\\{y = -\frac{1}{2}x - 2} \ \ \text{When we divide by two, we get this.}

And then, we're done! Our final answer is y=-\frac{1}{2}x -2.

Given vertices A(0,0), B(5,0),C(0,5), determine whether triangle ABC is a right triangle. a. yes c. insufficient information b.
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

Yes, this triangle is a right triangle.


Step-by-step explanation:

Side AB lies on the x-axis and is thus horizontal.  Side AC lies on the y-axis and is thus vertical.  Sides AB and AC are therefore perpendicular to each other.  This alone is enough info for us to conclude that this is a right triangle.

Side BC could be thought of as the hypotenuse.
