Can someone help me understand Slope-Intercept Form for algebra please???

Mathematics
1 answer:
Helen [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The slope-intercept form is simply the way of writing the equation of a line so that the slope (steepness) and y-intercept (where the line crosses the vertical y-axis) are immediately apparent. Often, this form is called y = mx + b form. This form of a line is one of the most commonly used in algebra classes.

Y=mx+b is used for what math equation
soldier1979 [14.2K]
       y = m x + b is a linear equation. 
      This equation is in the slope - intercept form, where m is the slope and b is y - intercept.
       For example: y = 2 x + 5
       In this equation: m = 2 ( the slope ) and b = 5 ( the line intercepts y-axis at the point ( 0, 5 )  ).

. Shanice is making a garden. The area of the garden is 24 ft2. Use the following shape and information to find the base (6−4) a
crimeas [40]

Answer:

The base and height  of the garden are 4.60 ft and 5.60 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the garden is, <em>A</em> = 24 ft².

The base height of the garden are:

base (<em>b</em>) = 6x - 4

height (<em>h</em>) = x + 3

Compute the value of <em>x</em> as follows:

A=\frac{1}{2}\times b \times h\\\\24=\frac{1}{2}\times (6x-4) \times (x+3)\\\\48=6x^{2}+18x-4x-12\\\\6x^{2}+14x-60=0\\\\3x^{2}+7x-30=0\\

The last equation is a quadratic equation.

Compute the roots of the quadratic equation as follows:

x = \frac{ -b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{ 2a }\\x = \frac{ -14 \pm \sqrt{14^2 - 4(3)(-30)}}{ 2(3) }\\x = \frac{ -14 \pm \sqrt{556}}{ 6 }\\x = \frac{ -14 }{ 6 } \pm \frac{2\sqrt{139}\, }{ 6 }\\x = -\frac{ 7}{  3 } \pm \frac{ \sqrt{139}\, }{  3 }\\x = 1.59661\\x\approx 1.60

The value of base and height are:

\text{base}=6x-4=(6\times 1.60)-4=5.60\ \text{ft}\\\\\text{height}=x+3=1.60+3=4.60\ \text{ft}

Thus, the base and height  of the garden are 4.60 ft and 5.60 ft.

If the zeros of a quadratic function, F, are -2 and 4, what is the equation of the axis of symmetry of F
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

if the zeroes are (-2,0) and (4,0), then the axis of symetry is going to be right in the middle of those two, with the graph reflected equally on either side.

so you get:

(4-2)÷2=1

therefore the equation of the axis of symetry is x=1

Find x in this 45°-45°-90° triangle.<br><br><br><br> x =
Zielflug [23.3K]
Use a^2 + b^2 = c^2

the triangle must be isosceles because the two angles are the same

1.2^2 + 1.2^2 = x^2
1.44 + 1.44 = x^2
2.88 = x^2
x=6√2/5
or
x ≈1.69706
