What is the equation of the line in y=mx+b format? BRAINLIST WILL BE REWARDED

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

y = 2/5x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a couple of different ways to figure this out, but since you have a graph, the fastest way is to count the slope, or m in the formula, by counting the rise (units up) over run (units to the right), which is 2/5. Then, find the value of b by finding the y-intercept on the graph, or -1.

The table below contains values for a linear relationship. One value from the table is missing.

kifflom [539]

The missing value is -3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; First, we need to determine the equation relating the x to the y values in the table. y is the dependent value whereas x is the independent value i.e. the value of y depends on the value of x.

Step 2; If we multiply the value of x with -2 and add the resulting answer with 1 we get the value of y.

y = -2x + 1 is the equation that relates the values in the table.

Step 3; Now we substitute the values in the equation

For x = 3, y = -2(3) + 1 = -6 + 1 = -5,

For x = -1, y = -2(-1) + 1 = 2 + 1 = 3,

For x = 0, y = -2(0) + 1 = 0 + 1 = 1,

For x = 2, y = -2(2) + 1 = -4 + 1 = -3,

For x = 4, y = -2(4) + 1 = -8 + 1 = -7,

For x = 7, y = -2(7) + 1 = -14 + 1 = -13.

So the value of y when x = 2 is -3.
