Put this into Slope Intercept Form x + 6y = –6

Mathematics

Answer:

y=-\frac{x}{6} -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the following equation:
x+6y=-6

And we want to convert it into slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is known as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The equation is currently in standard form, which is ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are integer coefficients

Notice how in standard form, both the terms that contain x and y are on one side, but in slope-intercept form, y is by itself on one side

So essentially, in order to convert from standard form to slope-intercept form, we need to solve for y

Here is our equation again:

x+6y=-6

Start by subtracting x from both sides

x+6y=-6

-x       -x

_______________

6y=-x-6

Now divide both sides by 6

y=-\frac{x}{6} -\frac{6}{6}
We can simplify the fractions to become:

y=-\frac{x}{6} -1
Hope this helps!

Given ΔABC with A(–4, –2), B(4, 4), and C(18, –8), write the equation for the line containing median segment The term is line se
Monica [59]
Here we want to find the equation of the line containing the median CP.

P, being the midpoint of AB can be found using the midpoint formula as:

\displaystyle{ P=( \frac{-4+4}{2} ,  \frac{-2+4}{2} )=(0, 1).


The slope m of the line through CP can be found by the slope formula using points C(18, -8) and P(0, 1):

\displaystyle{ m= \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \frac{-8-1}{18-0}= \frac{-9}{18}= \frac{-1}{2}.


Now, we can write the equation of the line with slope -1/2, passing through
P(0, 1):

y-1= \frac{-1}{2}(x-0)\\\\y= -\frac{1}{2}x+1.


Answer: y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1

Mark wants to improve his free throw percentage in basketball He has shot 1,250 free throws over the last 20 days. He shot eithe
Sedaia [141]
Let's use a for number of days when he shot 50 shots and b for number of days when he shot 100 shots.
We have:
a + b = 20

We also know that he shot total of 1250 shots:
50a + 100 b = 1250

We have two equations. We can solve them for a and b.  Let's rearange first equation for a:
a= 20 - b
We insert this into second equation:
50 * (20 - b ) + 100b = 1250
1000 - 50b + 100b = 1250
50b = 250
b = 5
a = 20 - 5
a = 15

Mark shot 100 shots on 5 days.
