3. Try It #3 Write the point-slope form of an equation of a line with a slope of -2 that passes through the point (-2,2). Then r

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Point-slope form of equation given as $y-2=-2(x+2)$ .

Slope-intercept form of equation is given as $y=-2 x-2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, it is given that the slope of a line is -2 and it passes from (-2,2).

It is asked to write the point-slope form of the equation and rewrite it as slope-intercept form.

To do so, first find the values which are given in the question and put it in the formula of point-slope form. Simplify the equation to rewrite as slope-intercept form.

Step 1 of 2

Passing point of the line is (-2,2).

Hence, $x_{1}=-2$ and

$y_{1}=2 \text {. }$

Also, the slope of the line is -2.

Hence, m=-2

Substitute the above values in point-slope form of equation given by $y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right)$

$\begin{aligned}&y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right) \\&y-2=-2(x-(-2) \\&y-2=-2(x+2)\end{aligned}$

Hence, point-slope form of equation given as y-2=-2(x+2).

Step 2 of 2

Solve y-2=-2(x+2) to write it as slope-intercept form given by y=mx+c.

$\begin{aligned}&y-2=-2(x+2) \\&y-2=-2 x-4 \\&y=-2 x-4+2 \\&y=-2 x-2\end{aligned}$

Hence, slope-intercept form of equation is given as y=-2x-2.

23 20' 48" is the same as _____. Round to the nearest hundredth of a degree.

boyakko [2]

So this is read as 23 degrees, 20 minutes, and 48 seconds. Each degree has 60 minutes and each minute has 60 seconds, somewhat like time. You must start from right to left for this to work. This may seem complicated but the way to find this is as follows:
23+(20+(48/60))/60. A simpler way to see this is by first taking 48/60 which is .8. Now you take 20+.8 which is 20.8 and you divide it by 60 once more. This comes out to be approximately .35. Now you have converted the seconds and minutes to degrees so you add 23+.35 which is 23.35. Therefore your answer is 23.35 degrees.
