Slope-intercept form is written as <em>y = mx + b</em>, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

From this graph we should determine two points so we can work out the slope. Let's take points (3, -4) and (6, -2).

                                       

The equation to find the slope is:

m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Let's substitute in our values:

m = \frac{-2 - -4}{6 - 3}

Remember that two negatives make a positive, let's solve for m:

m = \frac{2}{3}

Okay, now we have the value of m. Now we need the value of b. We can determine this by looking at the graph and looking where the line passes through the y-axis. In this graph, we can see the line pass through the y-axis at point (0, -6).

Therefore we can determine that b = -6.

Let's substitute our value for m and our value for b into the slope-intercept formula:

y = mx + b

<u>y = </u>\frac{2}{3}<u>x + -6</u>

There's your final answer! I hope this helps, have a great night. :)

Explain the steps you would take to find the area of the following composite shape. (Use 3.14 for Tr.)
USPshnik [31]
The first composite shape we would need to find is the rectangle. We would use the formula length multiplied by width. The second composite shape is a hemisphere. The area of a hemisphere is Pi multiplied by the radius squared and then divide it by 2. To find the area of both of these figures, add up the area for each one and then you will get the
area of both.
