ndicate, in standard form, the equation or inequality that is shown by the graph. https://media.glynlyon.com/g_geo_ccss_2013/9/groupi93.gif
@SandeepReddy
what's a standard form? im afraid i don't know the form
is it ax+by =c ?
yes
Would it be a+4b=c? @SandeepReddy
no , see here a , b and c are constants and x and y are variables, we need to find a,b and c
You know two point, the intercepts. you can use those to find the slope pretty easy. Then put it in the right form.
from the graph if each mark is 1 unit, then we have points (0,4) and (4,0) passing through the line right?
Yep. Which should tell you the slope right off.
yes
and for \(y=mx+b\) form you need the y intercept for b... well... you have it. So you have b.
slope=-1
Yes.
So what next
Well, what is the y intercept? Remember, in \(y=mx+b\) the b is the y intercept and the m is the slope. If you have those two things you can then put them in the formula and move it around to get standard form.
how do I get the y intercept
Y intercept is the where the line crosses the y - axis.
You can always find it algebraically to if you have found rest of the variables.
so the y intercept is 4
Well, algebraically, you have the slope, so you know: \(y=-x+b\) So take a point, either one, and put it in there. But I suggest \((0,4)\) because it is easier. Yes! there you go.
So put that in for b.
Yup
so is the final answer y=(-1)x+4
No, that is in slope intercept form. you just need to solve \(y=-x+4\) for standard form.
\[Ax+By=C \] standard form \[y=mx+b \] slope - intercept form
Remember that earlier you agreed on \( ax+by =c\) as the standard form. So you need the x and y on the left with only a number on the right. =) So one last step and you are done.
So to convert it into standard form, you already have y isolated so we can go to the next step which is multiplying all the terms by the multiplicative inverse of y, then simplify. But, your problem is even easier just move the x to the left side.
so y-x=3?
No... um... your number changed and how did you move things like that?
to move the x to the left I subtracted x from both sides then did -1+4
\(m + n - i - 42 = 0\) To move the 42, I would need to add to both sides: \(m + n - i - 42 +42 = 0 +42\) \(m + n - i = 42\) To move the i, becvause it is -i, I need to add it: \(m + n - i+i = 42+i\) \(m + n = 42+i\) To move the n, because it is +, I must subtract it. \(m + n-n = 42+i-n\) \(m = 42+i-n\) So you must do the opposite of what sign it is. You have a \(-x\) so you must add it.
\(y = (-1)x+4\) means the -1 is multiplying x. So it becomes: \(y = -1x+4\) \(y = -x+4\)
Great example @e.mccormick
okay so y=-x+4 is my final answer
No, the x needs to move. You just had it a little wrong when you moved it.
so would it be x+y=4
There you are!
Thank you so much I appreciate it!
Well, I hope you can see the process. It was really just the same as if you were given 2 points at random. But with that graph, the two points were easy ones to work with.
A number is chosen at random from the first 100 positive integers. Find the probability that the number is either even or a perfect square. @campbell_st
well how many even numbers are there and how many odd perfect squares... P(even or Perfect square) = (even + odd perfect squares)/100
well every even number is positive right
yes... so positives go from 0 to 100 how many even hoe many odd perfect squares..?
doesn't it want all the way to 200 because it asks for the first 100 positive integers, not which numbers are positive in the first hundred. Do you know what I mean? @campbell_st
1 Circle O, with center (x, y), passes through the points A(0, 0), B(–3, 0), and C(1, 2). Find the coordinates of the center of the circle. In your final answer, include all formulas and calculations used to find Point O, x, y), the center of circle O. 2.A. Line m contains the points, A(–2, 6) and B(4, 8), while line n contains the C(8, 12) and D(x, 24). Given m and n are perpendicular lines, solve for the value of x. Given m and n are parallel lines, solve for the value of x. In your final answer, include all formulas and calculations necessary to solve for x. Can you please help me with these two problems? @skullpatrol
