Write an equation in slope intercept form of the line that passes through the point (-5, -1) with slope -3.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Neporo4naja [7]3 years ago

Answer:

y= -3x-16

Step-by-step explanation:

slope intercept form is written as y=mx+b.  m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.  -3=m

we know that (-5,-1) is 5 points away from the origin, and that the slope is -3, so 5 times -3 equals -15.  subtract 15 from -1 (y-coordinate) in order to get the y-intercept (when x=0).

The length of a rectangle is 3cm greater than its width. the perimeter of the rectangle is 34cm. find its length.​
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

10cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for perimeter is:

P=2(l+w)

Let the width of the rectangle be x then the length would be...

3+x

Now, let's plug these values into the equation and solve. (Note we are also given perimeter is 34 cm):

34=2(x+3+x)\\34=2(2x+3)\\Distribute\ the\ 2\ to\ each\ term\ in\ the\ parentheses\\34=2(2x)+2(3)\\34=4x+6\\Subtract\ 6\ from\ both\ sides\\4x=28\\Divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 4\\x=7

And since the length is x+3 then it is...

x+3=7+3=10cm

PLEASE ANSWER

x is the independent variable.

y is the dependent variable.

-3 is the rate of change (slope).

-7 is the initial value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The form of the linear relation is y = m x + b, where

  • m is the rate of change (slope)
  • b is the initial value(value of y at x = 0)
  • x is the independent variable
  • y is the dependent variable

∵ The equation of the line is y = -3 x - 7

- Compare it with the form above

∴ m = -3

∵ m is the rate of change

∴ The rate of change is -3

∴ b = -7

∵ b is the initial value

∴ The initial value is -7

∵ y depends on x

∴ x is the independent variable

∴ y is the dependent variable

x is the independent variable.

y is the dependent variable.

-3 is the rate of change (slope)

-7 is the initial value.
