Hello!
To the value of b, or the y-intercept, we need to substitute an ordered pair/point into the given equation.
Since we are given two points, we can use those two points to find two different equations.
Remember that ordered pairs are written as (x, y).
A(-2, 4)
y = -3x + b
4 = -3(-2) + b
4 = 6 + b (subtract 6 from both sides)
-2 = b
A) Therefore, the equation of the first ordered pair is y = -3x - 2.
B(5, 2)
2 = -3(5) + b
2 = -15 + b (add 15 to both sides)
17 = b
B) The equation of the second ordered pair is y= -3x + 17.
<u>Final answers</u>:
- A) y = -3x - 2
- B) y = -3x + 17
5.09 because 2 is less then 5 so you round down
YES Tanya is correct thanks so I will be back in the uuuuyyy
Answer:
Answer B - y=[x]+7
Step-by-step explanation:
A normal [x] function has a slope of one, a y intercept of 0, and all the other basic values.
7 changes this.
Looking at the graph, we see that the y intercept is now 7.
How can this be? x was added to by 7.
If it was subtracted, it would be -7, not postive 7.
So the answer is y=[x]+7
Hope this helps!
