The equation of a line is:
y = mx + c
The m is the gradient of the line, and the c is the y-intercept of the line
That means that the y-intercept of [y = -4x + 3] is 3
and the y-intercept of [y = -4x + 4] is 4
So the distance between the two y-intercepts is:
4 - 3 = <u>1</u>
The slope would be -5 over 7
Answer:
cleetus
Step-by-step explanation:
For example #1 is 3/4 since there is no whole number but but for #3 1 and 1/8
The small number is 2.
The large number is 3.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Let the two consecutive numbers be x and x+1.
- x be the small integer.
- x+1 be the large integer.
The sum of these two consecutive integers = small integer + large integer
The sum of these two consecutive integers is x+x+1 = (2x+1)
It is given that,
- The sum of two consecutive integers is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- This means that, (2x+1) is one less than three times the smaller integer.
- Here, the small integer is represented as x.
<u>Therefore, it can determined that :</u>
(2x+1) = 3x-1
Keeping x term on one side and constants on other side,
3x-2x = 1+1
x = 2
Therefore, the small number is 2 and the large number is x+1 = 3.
