The equation of a line is -6x-2y= -18
What is the x-intercept of the line?
-3
3 <-- ?
9
-9
The equation of a line is x+5=12
What is the y-intercept of a line?
-12
5/12
12 <-- idk not sure
12/5
The equation of a line is 2x-2y=6
What is the slope of the line?
1
1/3
-1
-3 <--?
agreed on the first 2, there is no answer for number 2
but the third
2y = 2x-6
y = x-3
slope = 1
your -3 is b in y = m x + b, the y axis intercept
To find the x-intercept of a line, you need to set y = 0 in the equation and solve for x. Let's use the equation -6x - 2y = -18.
1. Substitute y = 0 into the equation: -6x - 2(0) = -18
2. Simplify the equation: -6x = -18
3. Divide both sides of the equation by -6: x = (-18)/(-6)
4. Calculate the value of x: x = 3
Therefore, the x-intercept of the line is 3.
To find the y-intercept of a line, you need to set x = 0 in the equation and solve for y. Let's use the equation x + 5 = 12.
1. Substitute x = 0 into the equation: 0 + 5 = 12
2. Simplify the equation: 5 = 12
Since this equation is not solvable, we cannot find the y-intercept of the line. Therefore, the answer for the y-intercept is unknown or idk not sure.
To find the slope of a line, you need to rearrange the equation into slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m represents the slope. Let's use the equation 2x - 2y = 6.
1. Move -2x to the right side of the equation: -2y = -2x + 6
2. Divide the entire equation by -2 to isolate y: y = (2/2)x - (6/2)
3. Simplify the equation: y = x - 3
The coefficient of x in the equation y = x - 3 represents the slope. Therefore, the slope of the line is 1.
