Answer:

The slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is $\frac{1}{2}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of two points, divide the difference between the y values by the difference between x values, you can remember this by the mnenomic "rise over run". In this case, the difference between y and x values would be 6 - 3 = 3 and 8 - 2 = 6 respectively. This means the slope between the two points (2, 3) and (8, 6) is $\frac{3}{6}$ or $\frac{1}{2}$ .

What is the relationship among direct variation,lines,rates of change, and slope?

JulsSmile [24]

A direct variation is a proportional equation. Such as:

For every 3 cookies, linda gets 1 glass of milk. The equation for this is y=3x where y is the glasses and x is the cookies. this is a direct variation. It also has a linear line. Linear means straight. Rate of change and slope are the exact same thing. They are the value of 'm' in y=mx+b

When we’re writing, we can use a thesaurus to find a different word with the same meaning to present an idea. How can we find di

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Math has the particularity that it is a logical construction.

This means that we can start with an expression X (where X is an equation, not a variable)

Now we can apply a lot of "math" to this equation in such a way that we can rewrite it, but the actual "meaning" of the equation will not change.

An example of this is factoring.

For example, we can write a quadratic equation as:

a*x^2 + b*x + c.

And we also can write this as:

n*(x - k)*(x - j)

where k and j are the solutions of the equation:

a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0.

What is the advantage of writing the equation in each form?

Well, both expressions actually represent the same thing, but the explicit information in each expression is different, so depending on what we want to do, we will choose one option or the other.

And we have lot's of different ways to express something, where we can find some ones really complex and useful, like the series of Taylor, where we can write a function as a summation of infinite terms.
