The slope of a line is 2. The y-intercept of the line is –6. Which statements accurately describe how to graph the function? A. Locate the ordered pair (0, –6). From that point on the graph, move up 2, right 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

B. Locate the ordered pair (0, –6). From that point on the graph, move up 2, left 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

C.Locate the ordered pair (–6, 0). From that point on the graph, move up 2, right 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

D.Locate the ordered pair (–6, 0). From that point on the graph, move up 2, left 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

Answer 1
Answer: A because (0,-6) is the y-intercept so you start at the point you know. Then because slope is a rise over run fraction the slope can also be written as 2/1 which is rise 2 over 1.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

A is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is 2 and the y-intercept is -6.

y-intercept is the point where x is zero. Hence, the point is (0,-6)

When we graph a linear function by slope-intercept method, first of all we plot the y-intercept.

Hence, first of all we plot the point (0,-6)

Now, slope is given by

\text{slope}=(rise)/(run)

if rise is positive then we move up from the y -intercept and if negative then move down. We keep run always positive and hence we move right from the rise point.

\text{slope}=2=(rise)/(run)

rise = 2

run = 1

Rise is positive hence, we move 2 units up from the point (0,-6) and then move 1 unit right to get the next point. Then we draw a line passing through these points.

A is the correct option.

How do you solve 4x^2-12x=7 algebraically

Answers

(if you don't wanna read all this the answer is at the bottom btw)

move the 7 over to equate the equation to 0

4x^2 - 12x -7 = 0

(ok now you have a (4), b (-12), and c (-7) here you can either use the quadratic formula to solve it or factor the equation)

to factor it, you have to multiply a and c (4*-7 = -28) and find two numbers that multiply to -28 and add to -12

the numbers are -14 and 2. sub those into the equation in place of b

4x^2 + 2x - 14x - 7 = 0

find the lcd of the first two terms and the last two terms to factor them

2x(2x + 1) - 7(2x+1) = 0
(2x -7) (2x+1) = 0
(x-7/2)(x+1/2) = 0

to find the two x values you need to find what values make the equation equal 0 on both sides.

so x is 7/2 or -1/2
