Answer:
b. y-y1 = m(x-x1)
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a matter of definition. There are perhaps a dozen useful forms of equations for a line. Each has its own name (and use). Here are some of them.
- slope-intercept form: y = mx + b
- point-slope form: y -y1 = m(x -x1)
- two-point form: y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)(x -x1) +y1
- intercept form: x/a +y/b = 1
- standard form: ax +by = c
- general form: ax +by +c = 0
Adding y1 to the point-slope form puts it in an alternate form that is useful for getting to slope-intercept form faster: y = m(x -x1) +y1. I use this when asked to write the equation of a line with given slope through a point, with the result in slope-intercept form.
Answer:
C. R = 17.9 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangle triangle with the adjacent side and the opposite side (neither of which are the hypotenuse).
The relation between those elements is the tangent:

So, to isolate the angle, we modify the formula as such:

If we round 17.87 degrees to the tenth... we get 17.9 degrees.
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
5+4=9
The median is the middle line. Range is the the lowest value subtracted from the highest value. Mode is the most often occurring number. The mean is the average of all the data.
Answer:
B) m = 2 , b = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
b = y-intercept
The y-intercept is -3
b = -3
m = slope
The slope is 2
m = 2
