Step-by-step explanation:
12:18
12 to 18
12/18 = 2/3
Answer:
<h2>y = 3.5x - 2</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
<h3>y = mx + b</h3>
m - slope
b - y-intercept
We have y-intercept b = -2. Substitute:
<h3>y = mx - 2</h3>
We have the point (4, 12) → x = 4, y = 12. Put them in the equation:
12 = 4m - 2 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
14 = 4m <em>divide both sides by 4</em>
14/4 = m → m = 3.5
Y=-3/2x+4
The slope is -3/2, since Kerry traveled three feet and only went down 2.
The y intercept is 4, since she started four feet above the origin
Slope intercept means
y=mx+c
the slope of the line is m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)=(-3-5)/(1+1)= -4
the equation of the line is
y-5 = -4(x+1)
4x+y-1=0
changing the equation into slope intercept form
y= -4x+1
let's bear in mind that sin(θ) in this case is positive, that happens only in the I and II Quadrants, where the cosine/adjacent are positive and negative respectively.
