Help plz with this math problem. I’m so confused
1 answer:
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 =
Let's substitute in our values:
m =
Remember that two negatives make a positive, let's solve for m:
m =
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><u>x + -6</u>
There's your final answer! I hope this helps, have a great night. :)

Rate of change is also knkown as slope which is found by
=slope if you know 2 points/ordered pairs
aos, if x incheases while y decreases then slope is negative
when x increases while y increases then slpe if positive
also, if you can convert to y=mx+b, m=slope
another thing if you have ax+by=c then slope=-a/b
so first one
2x-5y=15
a=2
b=-5
-2/-5=2/5
slope=2/5
positive
next
y=-4x
-4 =slope=negative
x increases while y decreases
negative
x increases while y decreases
negative
so

A. 6x-3y=12
sloope=-6/-3=2
B. y=5x+b
slope=5
C. (8-2)/(3-1)=6/2=3
sloope=3
D. goes up 4 units and goes right 1 unit, 4/1=4
sloope=4
5 is greates
B is the answer
A. (6-3)/(4-3)=3/1=3
slope=3
B. y=4+6x
slope=6
C.12x+6y=18
slope=-12/6=-2
D. goes down 5 units as it goest 1 uniit to right aka -5./1
slope=-5
greatest is 6
B is answer
the starting value I would guess si when x=1 what is the greats y value
look at each
first one
A. x=1 and =-3
B.y=3x-8
y=3(1)-8
y=3-8
y=-5
C. 8x+4y=16
8(1)+4y=16
8+4y=16
4y=8
y=2
D. at 1 unit to right it is 1 nit up so y=1
greatest is 2 or C
so just subsitute 1 for x since x represents how many teaspoons
y=16(1)560
y=16+560
y=576 caloris for 1 sugar teaspoon
for honey, just read off the graph
for when x=1
y=504
so calores of sugar=576
calories in honey=504

equating the exponents since bases on both sides are 7
4x = 5 - 3x
7x = 5 ⇒ x =
