Why might someone choose to use the y-intercept and the slope to graph a line?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: because you could use the slope intercept form which is y=mx+b the m stands for the slope and the b stands for the y intercept. you plot the y-intercept or whatever b is then you find the slope and put your dot there making it much faster to graph a line then having to make a table.

Please give me the answer if you know it, or help me figure it out.

Answers

I'll give you the linear equation:

y = mx + b ; where m is the slope of the line ; b is the y-intercept.

y = -5x - 2

m = -5
b = -2

-5 is the slope of the line while -2 is the y-intercept. Choice 1.) -5

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

because -5 is the answer and it is choice 1 i didi quiz and -5 is good answer

HJ=53 IK=56 JK=15 find the length of HI and IJ

Answers

HI = (HJ + JK) - IK

HI = (53 + 15) - 56 = 69 - 56 = 13

IJ = HJ - HI = 53 - 13 = 40

If x = -5, then |x - 7| =
A: -12
B: 2
C: 12
D: -2

Answers

$x=-5\n\n|(-5)-7| = \n(-5)-7=-12\n\nTherefore, \n\boxed{|(-5)-7|=12}$

Remember that there cannot be a negative number in an absolute value.

$|-5-7|=|-12|=12$
