How do you turn equations into slope intercept form?

How do you turn a slope intercept equation into a standard equation?
You place X and Y on the same side to get a standard equation.
What is the relationship between a linear equation and its line on a graph?
Since the geraph is a picture of the equation, it's almost a father and son relationship. The equation begets the graph. The graph, in turn, admires and looks up to the equation.
What is the slope of the graph of 3x plus y equals 7?
3x + y = 7 First, turn the equation into the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the graph that that equation represents (solve for y).3x + y = 7 subtract 3x to both sidesy = -3x + 7So you clearly see that the slope is -3.
How do you turn ratios into simplest form?
by dividing
What will U-244 turn into after alpha decay?
If a uranium-244 atom undergoes alpha decay, it will become an atom of thorium-240. If we wrote an equation, it might look like this:92244U => 90240Th + 24He++The uranium-244 is transmuted into throium-240, and the alpha particle, which is a helium-4 nucleus (and represented as such) emerges at the tail end of the equation.

Why can nuclear energy be characterised as renewable energy?
This is a mistake. Nuclear energy is non-renewable, because it uses up uranium which has been formed billions of years ago in some sort of cosmic explosion, and is no longer being made, at least in our solar system. Note that some people advocate using thorium to make fissile uranium, this is possible but then eventually you would use up all the thorium on earth so the same argument applies. Breeder reactors are another aspect of nuclear energy, these turn non fissile uranium into fissile plutonium, but the same argument about eventually running out of uranium applies.
How does uranium turn nucular?
it doesn't.
How rare is radium?
There aren't any "deposits" of radium compounds, but there are traces of it in a lot places where traces (or more) of uranium are found. The tiny bit of this element that occurs naturally is widely distributed. With a great deal of effort, it can be accumulated from the refining of carnotite, an ore of uranium. Radium is (highly) radioactive, and it is a daughter of the radioactive decay of thorium, which is, in turn, a radioactive daughter of uranium decay. The uranium and thorium in this decay chain are long lived, and radium is relatively short-lived. This translates into the idea that only trace amounts of it exist naturally. The chemistry of radium was known largely from working with only trace amounts. Additional information was gleaned from the study of larger quantities following its separation from carnotite, a uranium ore. A link to the Wikipedia article on radium is provided.
Why uranium fuel turn into oxide?
Uranium dioxide (UO2) is more suitable as nuclear fuel for commercial nuclear reactors than uranium metal.
In nuclear power plants where are fuel rods found and what function do they perform?
The Fuel Rods are primarily found inside the Reactor Core itself, It is mainly Uranium or Thorium which provides a nuclear reaction that produces intense amount of heat in whih where water is converted in to steam and made to turn the turbines.
Why does uranium isotope radiation turn salt orange?
If you think to table salt, radiations from uranium haven't an influence.
How is uranium turn to red?
By heating up to melting point.
Can uranium turn into liquid?
Yes, if you get it hot enough, it will melt.
How does uranium turn nuclear?
Pure Uranium is radioactive; thus harmful. Inside a nuclear reactor, atoms get split. When the Uranium atom is split, it releases a huge amount of energy. This energy is called nuclear energy. Also the normal Uranium is not used in reactors. The Uranium that is used is enhanced; it is an isotope of Uranium. Uranium-237 and Uranium-238 are used in nuclear reactors. I hope this answer was useful for you.
What are the benefits of uranium?
1. Uranium is important for nuclear reactors, for the production of clean energy (no contribution to global warming and air pollution). 2. Uranium is important for nuclear weapons. 3. Uranium has many other minor applications in chemical industry, ceramics, glass industry, electronics, photography, for armors, etc.
