Answer: I think it’s 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Whats the slope of a line if its plotted (0,0) and (3,6), find the y-intercept of the line. Write an equation for the line using your answers. Find one more point that lies on the line. Explain why that point is also a solution to the function. (Please explain your answers so I could understand it more) thanks guys!

Answers

To find the slope you do the method
Y2-Y1
--------
X2-X1
So you do 6-0=6 and 3-0=3. That would be 6/3 and then, you simplify it. Your slope is 2.
To find the y-intercept you have to do the point slope form, then, you do the slope intercept form
Y-Y1=m(x-x1)
You do y-6=2(x-3)
Y-6=2x+(-6)
You add six to both sides
The equation is y=2x
The y-intercept is -6
One more point on the line would be (4,8). Because if you look at the slope it is 2/1. When plotting a point you look at the slope as rise over run. The two is the rise and the 1 is the run. So you go to (3,6) and add 1 to the 3. Then, you add 2 to the 6 to get (4,8). That's why that point is a solution to the function. You could also do (2,4) if you did the opposite and subtracted the 2 and 1 to make the bottom half of the line.



very simple.

so slope=rise/run so  if we plot the points and find how high and how long it went we see that the slope=6/3=2
slope=2

since the line goes through the origin (0,0) the y-intercept=(0,0)
and the equation is
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=how much away from the origin whic is not applicable in this problem. so
y=2x

How do I figure out these questions?Could you please teach me and give me examples? Examples with the answer and why it is would also be appreciated!

1) How tall are Sally and Anna if Sally is 0.1 m taller than Anna and their combined height is 3.16 metres?
Sally _ Anna _

2) Find these simple quantities
a. 1/5 of $50
b. 10% of $40

Thank you!

Answers

1) Sally is 1.63 m tall and Anna is 1.53 m tall
2) 1/5 of $50 is $10 (just divide 50 by 5)
10% of $40 is $4 (multiply 40 by 0.1)
1) you should let x be Anna's height and (x+0.1) will be sally's height
.
x + x + 0.1 =3.16
2x=3.16-0.1
2x=3.06
x=3.06/2
X=1.53
So anna's height is 1.53m and sally's is 1.53+0.1=1.63m.

This is how u do it hope it helped:)

In the given figure , the value of x is

Answers

I can see how you might have trouble with this one, because the drawing isn't clear.
Here's what it's trying to show:

-- The line 'a'--'b' is the line where a wall meets the floor.

-- The line to 'c' is a vertical line drawn on the wall.

-- The line to 'd' is a line drawn on the floor.

If you can see it like that, then there are two giveaways for the value of 'x':

One way:
'c' is perpendicular to the floor.  That's the only way the angles
on the wall on each side of it ... 3x and 3x ... could be equal, and
they must be 90 degree angles, so 'x' is 30 degrees.    

The other way:
The line on the floor, to 'd', is not perpendicular to the wall, because the angles
on the floor on each side of it are not equal.  But the two of them do add up to
180 degrees, because the line 'a'--'b' is a straight line.
So 'x' is what's left over when 150 degrees is taken away from 180 degrees.
'x' is 30 degrees again.
150+3x+3x+x=360\n 7x=210\n x=30
