What are equation of lines?
y = mx + cWhere m is the gradient of the line and c is a constant (the intercept of the line).The equation of a line is typically written asy=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.If you know two points that a line passes through, this page will show you how to find the equation of the line.
How do you find an equation to a line that is parallel to y-3 and passes through the point (26)?
The gradient of the line y = -3 is 0. So any parallel line has the equation y = c.Since it goes though the point (2, 6), c = 6 and so the equation is y = 6.
What equation of a line that has a gradient of 3 and passes through the origin?
y=3x
What is the equation of a line which has a gradient of 3 and passes through 4.1?
The general equation of a line isy = mx + cIf the gradient is 3 then m = 3 so thaty = 3x + cSince the point (4,1) lies on this line, these coordinates must satisfy the equation.So 1 = 3*4 + cie c = -11Therefore, the equation is y = 3x - 11
What is x plus y equals 11?
It is an equation of a straight line.
The slope-intercept equation of a line is y equals mx plus b where m is the slope of the line?
y = mx + c is the equation of a straight oblique line where m = gradient The gradient is a measue of the steepness of a line (or a measure of the slope of the line)
What is the slope for the equation y equals -3?
The slope (or gradient) of a vertical or horizontal line is zero.
How do you find the gradient of a line using y equals 7x plus 2?
When the equation is given in the standard form: y = mx + c, the gradient is m. So here, y = 7x + 2 means m, the gradient, is 7.
What is the gradient of -y equals 7x plus 5?
The equation of the line is y = 7x + 5 The gradient = the slope of the line = dy/dx = 7, in this case. The y-intercept is 5. ========================
How do you find the gradient of a Linear Equation?
If necessary, rearrange the linear equation so that it is in the slope-intercept form: y = mx + c Then the gradient of the line is m.
Find the slope of the line for the following linear equation 5x plus 2y equals -10?
5x + 2y = -10 general line equation form is: y= mx + c so 2y = -10 - 5x y = -2.5x - 5 m refers to gradient and c is offset on the y axis so gradient is -2.5 (gradient means slope)
What is -2x plus y equals -4?
-6
The line L has an equation 5x+7y = 3. Find the gradient of line L?
-5/7
What is the gradient of a line with the equation y equals 5x - 2?

What equation represents a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x plus 3y equals 12?
Rearranging the original equation, we get y=-(2/3)x+12. Since 12 is the constant, this is the point that the line of this equation will cut the y-axis if x=0. Therefore, -(2/3) is the gradient and for an equation to produce a parallel line, the gradient must be equal. Summing up, y=-(2/3)+c (where c equals any real number) would be parallel
The gradient of the line is y equals -4 x plus 3 is?
When equation of line is y=-4x+3, Gradient is -4 (as seen from the coefficient of x) and the y-intercept is +3 (point where x=0)
What is 17x plus 2y equals 23?
17x + 2y = 23 is the equation of a straight line with gradient -8.5 and intercept 11.5
