What is the y-intercept of the line given by the equation below ? Y=8x+7

2 answers:

7 0

The y-intercept is 7.

The equation is in form y = mx + b.

b is the y-intercept and m is the slope.

So in this case the slope is 8.

Hope this helps :)

Hello there!

Since the equation you gave is in slope-intercept form, we can simply find the y-intercept by only looking at the equation.

slope-intercept form is:
y = mx + b
m : slope
b : y-intercept

Your equation is y = 8x + 7
y = mx + b
y = 8x + 7

So the y-intercept is 7.
Hope this helped!! :)

Describe and correct the error in writing an equation of the line with a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of 7.

olganol [36]

Answer:

The mistake they made was they switched the slope and y-intercept.

The correct answer is y=2x+7 because when we write an equation in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) you replace m with the slope and b with the y-intercept.

Hope this helps! <3

Find the distance between the pair of points<br><br> (0,0)(6,8)

Ivahew [28]

A(0,0)
B=(6,8)

Distance formula

$\boxed{\sf AB=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{(6 - 0) {}^{2} + {(8 - 0)}^{2} } \\ \\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{ {6}^{2} + {8}^{2} } \\ \\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{36 + 64 } \\ \\ \sf\longmapsto \sqrt{100} \\ \\ \sf\longmapsto 10$

What is the probability of rolling the following number situation with a fair number cube (1-6)?

sasho [114]

Answer:

1/2, or 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

out of the six possibilities, there are 3 odd numbers: 1, 3, 5

3 out of 6 is 1/2, therefore the probability is 1/2, or 50%
