Answer:

y-intercept = (0, - 3)

x-intercept = (-6, 0)

slope = - 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The y intercept is the value of y when the x = 0. By looking at the graph, we can tell that when x = 0, y = - 3. Likewise for the x-intercept.

We can use the slope formula to determine the slope.

m = y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

You can choose any 2 points on the line and substitute in the formula. I chose the y and x intercepts for easier calculations.

m = - 3 - 0/ 0 - (- 6)

m = - 3/ 6

m = - 1/2

A number k is greater than 3. Which of the following is true about 승 ? 1 It is between 3 3 It is equal to 1 It is greater than 1

Alekssandra [29.7K]

If the number k is greater than 3, we have the following inequality:

$k>3$

In order to evaluate k/3, let's divide the inequality by 3:

$\begin{gathered} k>3 \\ \frac{k}{3}>\frac{3}{3} \\ \frac{k}{3}>1 \end{gathered}$

So the expression k/3 is greater than 1, therefore the correct option is D.

The point-slope form:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$m$ - slope

$(x_1,\ y_1)$ - point

We have the point $(3,\ -2)\to x_1=3,\ y_1=-2$ and the slope $m=\dfrac{2}{3}$

Substitute:

$y-(-2)=\dfrac{2}{3}(x-3)\\\\\boxed{y+2=\dfrac{2}{3}(x-3)}$
