I would think it is b sorry if im wrong
The slope is 16/4 which is 4/1 which can also be 4. So the most simplified is 4
What is the least common denominator used to add the fractions 1/32 and 3/24
F(x) = 3x + 1.....this is the same as y = 3x + 1.
In y = mx + b form, which is what y = 3x + 1 is in, the rate of change (slope) is in the m position and the y int (the initial value) is in the b position.
y = mx + b
y = 3x + 1
ur rate of change (slope)...number in the m position = 3
ur initial value (y int)...number in the b position = 1
so rate of change = 3 and initial value = 1
Answer:
If the line goes through the origin, (0,0), that means the linear equation is proportional, if it doesn't go through the origin, the equation isn't proportional.
You can also tell if a linear equation is proportional if the equation has an constant after the x (for example y=2x+6)
