Question

What are the slope and point for 3y=x+11

Answer 1

Hi there! And welcome to OpenStudy! :D

Answer 2

@dennis_Elan

Do you have answer choices as well?

Anyways, we can find the slope by converting your equation into the form of y = mx + b

In the form y =mx + b
m is the slope

so 3y = x + 11

Divide both sides by 3. :)

Answer 3

Choices are slope of 1/3 for all. And points are (19,2) (17,-2) (-5,2)

Answer 7

I will get some paint going quickly to better draw an example...

Answer 8

I can't open it TheSmartOne

Answer 9

Ok, lets start from y=2x+2

Answer 10

my nephew came....

Answer 11

I wil see if I an finish (he is 1 yr old)

Answer 12

Okay

Answer 13

The slope (often denoted with letter m"), but what does sope mean?

The sope answers this question:
As the function travels 1 unit to the right, by how many units is it going up?

Answer 14

s

Answer 15

So you can see that the slope is 2.
(Because the function goes up by 2 units, when it moves 1 unit right)

Correct?

Answer 16

I don't know. I've be subtracting y1 and y2 I've x2 - x1

Answer 17

You can do that too, excellent!
