Answer: 3

Explanation: The equation in this problem is written in slope intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form.

The m or the coefficient of the x-term represents slope and the b or the constant term represents the y-intercept.

Looking back at our original equation which is y = 3x - 5, notice that the 3 is where the m goes in y = mx + b form.

So the slope of this line will be 3.

Answer:

The y intercept and the slope are given in the equation. y=mx+b is slope-intercept form. mx is the slope and b is the y intercept. so in y=3x-5, 3x is the slope and -5 is the y intercept (what y is when x is zero).

Q7 Q16.) Convert the polar equation to a rectangular equation.

Mekhanik [1.2K]

In polar coordinates, we have

$x=r\cos\theta\implies\cos\theta=\dfrac xr$
$y=r\sin\theta\implies\sin\theta=\dfrac yr$

From this we can write

$\tan\theta=\dfrac{\sin\theta}{\cos\theta}=\dfrac{\frac yr}{\frac xr}=\dfrac yx$

If $\theta=\dfrac{4\pi}3$ , then $\tan\theta=\sqrt$ , so we get

$\dfrac yx=\sqrt3\implies y=\sqrt3\,x$
