Graph y = 3x - 3 and label the x- and y-intercepts. My answer: (0,3)

1 answer:

5 0

The slope-intercept form of the linear function is y = m x + b , where m is the slope and b is y-intercept.
Here we have: y = 3 x - 3
a ) When y = 0
0 = 3 x - 3
- 3 x = - 3
x = ( - 3 ) : ( - 3 )
x = 1
When x = 0
y = 3 * 0 - 3
y = - 3
So x - intercept is ( 1, 0 ) and y-intercept is ( 0, - 3 ).
b ) The slope:
m = ( y2 - y1) / ( x2 - x1 ) =
= ( - 3 - 3 ) / ( 5- 7 ) = ( - 6 ) /( - 2 ) = 6 / 2 = 3
Answer: The slope m = 3 .

A group of hikers walked 2 1/4 km in 3/4 hour.The distance here varies directly with time. What is the constant of variation?

telo118 [61]

The distance depends on the time.

So now we need to find the constant of variation or the constant of proportionality.

To do so we must find y(the dependent variable) and x(the independent variable).

To find the constant(k) we must find y/x

Since y/x=k

Then 2.25/.75=k

k=3

Answer:

5 pints per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Morning:

Given:

Number of strawberries packed in every 4 minutes = 3

∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute = $\frac{3}{4}$

So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes = $\frac{3}{4}\times 60=45$

1 hour = 60 minutes.

So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 45 pints per hour in the morning.

Afternoon:

Number of strawberries packed in every 3 minutes = 2

∴ Number of strawberries packed in every one minute = $\frac{2}{3}$

So, number of strawberries packed in every 60 minutes = $\frac{2}{3}\times 60=40$

1 hour = 60 minutes.

So, strawberries are packed at a rate of 40 pints per hour in the afternoon.

Difference between the packing rates is given as:

Morning rate - Afternoon rate = 45 - 40 = 5 pints per hour.

So, she packed 5 more pints in one hour in the morning than in the afternoon.

Answer:

Integers are a series of positive and negative numbers. When adding such numbers students have to pay attention to the sign that precedes the numbers in the equation. Generally, adding a value to a negative value is like subtracting the negative value from the positive one.
