Line where the slope is -2 y intercept is 1

We've been given to find out the equation of a line who has its slope (m) = -2 and a Y-intercept = 1. So here we have basically two things i.e,

  • Slope (m) = -2

  • Y-intercept (c) = 1

First of all we must know the unique form of equation of line which is y = mx + c which is only applicable for those who have slope and y-intercept defined in it.

Placing respective values,

:\implies\rm{y = mx + c}

:\implies\rm{y =  - 2x + 1}

  • The equation of line is y = -2x + 1

<h2 /><h2>ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: </h2>

1) Slope point form equation: If a line passes through point (x,y) and slope (m) then equation of line is given by,

:\implies\rm{ y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)}

2) Two point form equation: If a line passes through two distinct points A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2) then equation of line is given by,

:\implies\rm{ \frac{y - y_1}{y_1 - y_2}  =  \frac{x - x_1}{x_1 - x_2} }

3) Double intercept form: If x & y intercepts of line are small 'a' and 'b' then equation of line is given by,

:\implies\rm{ \frac{x}{a}  +  \frac{y}{b}  = 1}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx +b

Here m is slope and b is y-intercept

y = -2x + 1

The table shows the maximum and minimum depths of two submarines. Find the range of depths for each submarine. Then determine wh
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Range A = 386ft

Range B = 427ft

B has the larger range.

Explanation:

To find the range, find the difference between the minimum and maximum depths for each submarine. Remember that your answer will be positive.

Sub A:

-146ft - (-532ft) = 386 ft

Sub B:

-194ft - (-621ft) = 427 ft

Submarine B has a larger range.

Write a power represented with a positive base and a positive exponent whose value is less than the base
Murrr4er [49]
That's <u>always</u> true if <em>either</em> the exponent <em>or </em>the base is less than ' 1 '.

(But not always of they both are.)

Víctor claims that when 1/6 is divided by a fraction the result will always be greater than 1/6 find an example of a fraction th
Naddik [55]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose a random fraction less than 1. I will choose 1/4.

1/6 ÷ 1/4 = 1/6 × 4/1 = 4/6 = 2/3

2/3 > 1/6 so this example supports his claim.

Now chose a fraction greater than 1. I will choose 4/3

1/6 ÷ 4/3 = 1/6 * 3/4 = 3/24

3/24 < 1/6 so this contradicts his claim

The perimeter of a standard-sized rectangular rug is 36 is 36 ft. the length is 2 ft longer than the width. find the dimensions
evablogger [386]
The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W, where L is the length and W is the width. Because we don't know either the length or the width we can't solve the problem...too many unknowns.  BUT we do have some information that will help with this problem.  We are told that the length is 2 feet longer than the width, so we can use that: L = W+2.  Now we can make the substitution into the formula along with the value for the perimeter that was given to us: 36=2(W+2) + 2W, and 36 = 2W + 4 + 2W; 36 = 4W + 4; 32 = 4W and W = 8.  Now go back to where you said that the length is 2 feet longer than the width.  If the width is 8, then 8+2 = 10 for the length.
