Point slope formula.. help

Mathematics
2 answers:
Lemur [1.5K]3 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.

five friends went to a game baseball .Three of the friends each bought a ticket for x dollars and a soda for $6.00 the other two
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Total amount spent = 3X+18 +2X = 5X +18 = Total amount spent

Now if we know the total amount spent we can find the price of each ticket

But that is not given unfortunately

The Bake Stars need to arrange 718 pupcakes on trays for a pooch pool party.
Lostsunrise [7]

3) 60

Step-by-step explanation:

718 ÷ 9 = 79.78

So, if you round to the nearest whole number its about 80, the closest answer from your options is 60 so I think the best estimate is number three: 60.

Which of the following are true? Select one or more:
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

(c) The t-distribution is bell shaped

(e) The t-distribution has more values at the extremes than a standard normal distribution

(f) The t-distribution is centered at 0

Step-by-step explanation:

When the sample size is small or population variance is unknown, and we have to estimate population parameter then t- probability distribution is used.

 The t-distribution has properties as follows:

  1. The mean of t-distribution is 0. Thus, option (f) is correct.
  2. t-distribution is normal. Thus, option (c) is correct.
  3. As compare to standard normal distribution, t-distribution has more values at the extremes. Thus, option (e) is correct.

What you put on social media matters. Why does it matter and how will you ensure your social media postings reflect you professi
Kaylis [27]
It matters because what you post is a type of reflection on you and if it’s something bad or law worthy you could get into a lot of trouble.. just because you delete something doesn’t mean it’s gone, your future jobs check your social media and anything about you before they hire you.. you ensure what you post reflects you professionally by thinking about it before you post it and if it’s something you don’t want your parents or even police or if you start feeling uncomfortable or iffy about posting don’t post it and you should be fine.
