Question

Identify the slope and y-intercept of the inequality 9x + 3y > 6.

slope = 3, y-intercept = 2

slope = -3, y-intercept = 2

slope = -3, y-intercept = 6

slope = negative 1 over 3, y-intercept = 2

Answer 1

@ParthKohli

Answer 2

The slope will be "m" and the y-intercept will be "b" once you put the inequality into the following form:

y > mx + b

Answer 3

@dmezzulo
try to write the above eqn in the form of
y =mx+ c
where c is y-intercept

Answer 4

Can it be put like in easier wording to understand maybe?

Answer 5

So, subtract the "x" term from both sides and then divide both sides by 3 and then you will have the form you are looking for.

The explanation of using that form is really the way you want to go because you will use that form a lot.

Answer 6

Is it D.

Answer 7

?

Answer 8

Don't guess. Try to do the math. The method is all laid out for you.

Answer 9

9x+3y>6
3y>-9x+6
y> -3x +2
compare with
y> mx +c
so m = -3 and c= 2

Answer 10

Oh i see now

Answer 11

I was looking at the problem and what @niksva made sense

Answer 12

tyvm.

Answer 13

You're welcome, but do try to do the work in the future.

Answer 14

Ok
