Question

Type the first equation from the group you selected and identify the slope and the y-intercept of the equation.
Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write in complete sentences.
Type the second equation from the group you selected and change the equation into slope-intercept form. Be sure to show all of your work. Identify the slope and y-intercept of the equation.
Describe how you would graph this line using the slope-intercept method. Be sure to write in complete sentences.
In a paragraph of at least three sentences, explain how the graphs

Answer 1

Help please?

Answer 2

what group of equations?

Answer 3

negative three-halvesx + 4

–3x + 2y = 8


y = negative 2 over 3x – 2

–2x + 3y = -6


y = negative 1 over 3x + 3

–x + 3y = 9


y = negative 1 over 6x + 5

–x + 6y = 30

Answer 4

I would like to do the second one.

Answer 5

If that's okay.

Answer 6

y = negative 2 over 3x – 2
–2x + 3y = -6
that?

Answer 7

and is "y = negative 2 over 3x – 2"
the same as \(y=-\frac23x-2\)

Answer 8

Yes! That's right!

Answer 9

Yep! I am having a problem with the second equation

Answer 10

\(-2x+3y=-6\);

the thing to know is, where to go?
>> The slope and intercept can be read when the equation is in hte fomr \(y=ax+b\).
Therefore, you must make your equation look like that. -> isolate the variable \(y\). do you get something?

Answer 11

I'm sorry?

Answer 12

I meant: do you obtain* something? some results?

Answer 13

Yes but I felt uncertain of what I was doing and stopped

Answer 14

now, what is your equation when you have isolated \(y\) ?

Answer 15

the first step, starting with
\[ -2x+3y=-6 \]
is to add +2x to both sides, like this
\[ +2x -2x+3y=-6 +2x\]
now simplify, what do you get ?

Answer 16

on the left side of the =, you have 2 x's take away 2 x's. How many x's do you have left ?

Answer 17

One?

Answer 18

if you have 2 dollars and take away 2 dollars, how many dollars do you have?

if you have 2 cows, and take away 2 cows, how many cows do you have ?
if you have 2 x's, and take away 2 x's, how many x's do you have ?

Answer 19

Oh I'm sorry! none!

Answer 20

so
\[ +2x−2x+3y=−6+2x \]
can be simplified to
\[ 3y = 2x - 6 \]
(we can switch the order of -6+2x to 2x + -6 or just 2x - 6)

now divide both sides (all terms by 3) can you do that ?

Answer 21

Yes! Is it...

Answer 22

y = 2/3 - 2

Answer 23

yes, but you left out the x

Answer 24

Take you so much Phi!
