Answer:

y = -1/3x +4

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the line has two points marked on it.

(x1, y1) = (-6, 6) . . . . . left point

(x2, y2) = (0, 4) . . . . right point, and y-intercept

The slope of the line is the ratio of the differences:

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

m = (4 -6)/(0 -(-6)) = -2/6 = -1/3

The y-intercept is the y-value where the line crosses the y-axis. Here, that y-value is 4.

In the slope-intercept form of the equation for the line, the slope is called <em>m</em>, and the y-intercept is called <em>b</em>. For this line, we have m=-1/3, b=4.

The equation is ...

y = mx +b

y = -1/3x +4 . . . . . the equation you're looking for

What is the solution of this system of linear equations? 3y = 3 y equals StartFraction 3 over 2 EndFraction x plus 6.X + 6 y – S

Scrat [10]

Answer:

(0,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

$y = \frac{3}{2}x + 6$

and

$\frac{1}{2}y - \frac{1}{4}x = 3$

We substitute the first equation into the second equation to get:

$\frac{1}{2} ( \frac{3}{2}x + 6) - \frac{1}{4}x = 3$

We expand to get:

$\frac{3}{4} x + 3 - \frac{1}{4}x = 3$

We group similar terms to get:

$\frac{3}{4}x - \frac{1}{4}x = 3 - 3$

$\frac{1}{2}x = 0$

$x = 0$

Put x=0 in to the first equation to get:

$y = 6$

Therefore the solution is (0,6)
