a line with the slope of 1/3 passes through the points of (6,0). what is the equation in slope intercept form?​
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

y = 1/3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation for slope intercept form is y= mx + b.

m is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis which is called the y-intercept.

to find the y-intercept plug in a coordinate on the line (6,0)

0 = 1/3(6) + b

then solve for b by first multiplying 1/3 by 6

0 = 2 + b

subtract 2 from both sides

-2 = b

and then you can plug b into the equation

y = 1/3x - 2

The front row in a movie theatre has 23 seats. If you were asked to sit in the seat that occupied the median position, in which
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the one in the middle.  For an <u>odd</u> number of seats, average the first and last seat numbers.

(1 + 23) / 2 = 24 / 2 = 12.  That means there will be 11 people on your left and 11 people on your right.

For an even number of seats, the same method doesn't work as well!  If there are 14 seats, for example,  (1 + 14) / 2 = 15 / 2 = 7.5,  and if you sit in "seat" 7 and a half, it will be awkward!
