You'll learn how to identify the slope and y-intercept from a graph or a given equation and how to convert between different forms of linear equations. Practical examples demonstrate how to write the ...
The y-intercept is the point at which a linear equation crosses the y-axis on the x=0 plot point. The equation to determine both the slope and the y-intercept of a line is y=mx+b. This calculation may ...
In math and statistics, you may occasionally need to calculate the slope of a line generated by coordinates in the (x,y) format. The slope is a value that indicates the rate at which the y value of a ...
It’s time to answer the age-old question of who would win between an Olympic sprinter, tortoise, car, you, and a volcano. Linear equations can be used to roughly see how you and other creatures stack ...
The graphs of \(y = 2x + 1\) and \(y = 2x - 2\) are shown below. The graph of \(y = 2x + 1\) crosses the \(y\)-axis at (0, 1). The graph of \(y = 2x - 2\) crosses the ...
Not a big fan of Microsoft Excel. Oh sure, it does the job, and it does it quite well (usually). I really just hate starting up that program. Let me say that historically, I think Excel has had a HUGE ...
In order to work with gradients and straight lines successfully, a good understanding of coordinates and linear graphs is needed. The gradient of a line is calculated by dividing the difference in the ...
