What is the slope for the following: 3x + 2y = 12

Mathematics
1 answer:
Cerrena [4.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

slope = - \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

3x + 2y = 12 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2y = - 3x + 12 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = - \frac{3}{2} x + 6 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{3}{2}

Beth and Maria are going to the country fair. Admission costs four dollars per person for each day. They plan to go for three da
IRISSAK [1]
The amount one person will pay for a day is $4
The amount two people will pay for a day is $8
The amount Beth paid for 3 days is 4*3=12
The amount Maria paid for 3days is also 4*3=12
So to find the amount they will pay for 3days, add 12 and 12 to get 24.
The girls will pay $24 for the 3days.

Hope it helps

Alex bikes 2 3/4 miles. Then, she runs 1 2/4 miles. The distance she bikes is how many times the distance she runs?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

1.83 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the distance biked divided by the distance run.

2 3/4 / 1.5 = 1.83 times.

This means that Alex biked 1.83 times more than the distance she ran.

In ΔDEF,{EF}\cong{DE} EF ≅ DE and m∠E = 104°. Find m∠D.
Alexeev081 [22]

The 3 inside angles need to equal 180.

Subtract E from 180 to find the sum of the other two angles:

180 - 104 = 76

Now because EF ≅ DE , angle D and F would be the same so divide 76 by 2

Angle D = 38

Explain the following terms: positive slope, negative slope, x-intercept, y-intercept << Read Less
garik1379 [7]
Hello there!

A positive slope is represented in a linear equation by a positive coefficient behind the x term. A positive slope means that the graph is on an increasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a positive slope means that the graph is going up from left to right.

A negative slope is represented in a linear equation by a negative coefficient behind the x term. A negative slope means that the graph is on a decreasing interval as x approaches +∞. In a more simple way, a negative slope means that the graph is going down from left to right.

The x intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the x-axis. These are also known as the zero(s) OR solution(s) of the function.

The y intercept(s) of a graph are where the graph touches the y-axis.

I hope this helps!
Best wishes:)
