How do you sketch this function y equals absolute value of 3x?

The graph of that function looks like a big letter ' V '. The point of the 'V' is at the origin,the left half has slope = -3, and the right half has slope = 3.


How do the slopes of the two parts of an absolute value function compare?

the graph of y = |x| (absolute value of x) looks like a V with the point of the V at the origin. When x is negative (left half of graph), the line y = -x coincides with |x| so this half has a slope of -1. When x is positive (right half of graph), the line y = x coincides with |x| so this half has a slope of +1.


What is the graph of a line with a slope one half that contains the points -6 and 6?

' -6 ' and ' 6 ' are not points. On a 2-dimensional (flat) graph, you need two coordinates to locate one point. (On a 3-dimensional (solid) graph, you need three coordinates to locate one point. And there's no such thing as a 1-dimensional graph.)


What is the slope of the graph of 6X plus 12Y equals 7?

negative one and a half


The halfway point of a tunnel through a mountain is three half miles from either end of the tunnel The mountain is 660 feet which is one eighth mile high What is the slope of the side of the mountain?

Twice half its rate of decline ;-)


What in its general form is the straight line equation passing through the point of one third and minus one half with a slope of one half?

If the point is x=a, y=b, the line is (y-b)=slope times (x-a).Or, slope=(y-b)/(x-a)So (y+1/2)=1/2 (x-1/3)Another answer:-Point: (1/3, -1/2)Slope: 1/2Equation: y - -1/2 = 1/2(x -1/3) => y = 1/2x -2/3In its general form: 3x -6y -4 = 0


What quantity does the slope of a distance vs time squared graph represent?

Since distance is 1/2 at^2 where a is acceleration, it represents one half of the acceleration


What does the slope of a distance vs time squared graph represent?

That's unusual. I guess your teacher is trying to make you think a bit. It's a good mental exercise, though. You may recall that the units of acceleration are meters per second squared. That gives you a clue right there. And if you knew Calculus, you'd know that acceleration is the second derivative of distance, s, with respect to time, t: d2s/dt2. So, by now you're probably getting the feeling that the slope of a distance-time squared graph has something to do with acceleration. And you'd be right. Just as the slope of a velocity-time graph is acceleration, the slope of a distance-t2 graph is acceleration. Well, not quite. It's actually ONE HALF the acceleration.


What is the opposite of a discrete graph?

The opposite of a discrete graph is a continuous graph. A continuous graph is where one of the variables (usually time) can continue on past what the graph says. An example would be if some one was traking the weather hour be hour. They could stop the graph at one point, but the information carries on. A discrete graph is where niether of the variables could be carried out past the graph. An example would be a shirt sale graph of how many shirts for a certain amount of money. Technically, you could have five dollars for half a shirt but realistically, you wouldn't cut a shirt in half


Is a half line ab the same as half line ba?

No. A half line (also called a ray) is a linear object which starts at the first point, and extends to infinity through the second point. So the half-line (or ray) AB starts at point A, and shoots 'through' B and continues past B to infinity. The half-line BA is the other way around: it starts at point B, and then shoots 'through' A and continues past A to infinity. These two half-lines/rays end up extending to infinity in opposite directions, so they are not the same (not congruent).


Why is slope equal to one-half the acceleration?

Normally it is not.


What is a slope perpendicular to negative one half?
