Point slope formula.. help

Mathematics
2 answers:
Lemur [1.5K]2 years ago

Answer:

y = 2x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

Attached below is my graph

I graphed the two points, and formed a line

From the point (0,0), i counted the units till the first point the line touches on the y axis (6)

This is the y intercept

The slope-intercept form is written as y = mx+b

m = slope

b = y intercept

So so far we have y = mx + 6

The slope is the rise to the next point the line touches, over the run

You can see that as it rises 2, it runs 1

Rise / Run = 2/1 = 2

Slope = 2

Equation: y = 2x + 6

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

If you like my answer and explanation, mark me as brainliest!

<h3>Answer:   y = 2x+6</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

We'll need the slope first

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (0-(-4))/(-3-(-5))

m = (0+4)/(-3+5)

m = 4/2

m = 2

The slope is 2.

Next, pick either of the two given points to play the role of (x_1,y_1)

Let's say we picked on (-5,-4). The order doesn't matter so you could easily pick the other point as well.

We'll plug these items into the point slope equation below to solve for y.

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - (-4) = 2(x - (-5))\\\\y  + 4 = 2(x +5)\\\\y  + 4 = 2x +10\\\\y  = 2x +10-4\\\\y  = 2x +6\\\\

Or we could have picked on (-3,0). The m value stays the same (at m = 2)

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)\\\\y - 0 = 2(x - (-3))\\\\y = 2(x +3)\\\\y = 2x+6\\\\

This one takes a few less steps. Either way, we get to the same answer.

You only need to pick one of the points, but doing both of them helps show that the two points are on the same line. It helps confirm the answer.

-----------------------

Another way to check the answer is to plug the (x,y) coordinates into y = 2x+6 for each point.

So let's say we check (x,y) = (-5,-4)

y = 2x+6

-4 = 2(-5)+6 ... replace x with -5, replace y with -4

-4 = -10+6

-4 = -4

This confirms the first point. I'll let you check the second point.

-4(4-4v)-v=-2(-5v-2) answer
nalin [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-16-16v - v = 10v + 4

Add 16 to both sides and combine like terms giving you

15v = 10v + 20

Subtract 10v from both sides

5v= 20

Divide by 5

V=4

PLEASE HELP WITH THESE 4 PROBLEMS
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

  • y = -5/2x + 5
  • y = 2x -1
  • y = 24/11
  • y = 4x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for y, subtract the x-term and divide by the coefficient of y.

5x +2y = 10

  2y = -5x +10

  y = -5/2x + 5

__

2y -4x = -2

  2y = 4x -2

  y = 2x -1

__

7y +4y = 24

  y = 24/11

We assume there is a typo, but cannot tell what it is. Use the same method as described and demonstrated for the other problems.

__

-2x +1/2y = 2

  1/2y = 2x +2

  y = 4x +4

A student gets 9 out of 15 problems correct on a homework assignment.
Alex777 [14]

Answer:40%.

Since the student got 60% correct, the remaining percentage would be the part they got incorrect.

I got 60% by translating 9/15 into a decimal and moving the decimal point to create a percentage.

Hope this helps!

Evaluate the expression when y=17 and z=7.
strojnjashka [21]
Pretty sure it would be 22.
17+7^2=66
17-2(7)=3 and you would divide 66 by 3
