What is the term for An equation whose graph is a line?
That would be a linear equation.
Describe the graph of a linear equation?
It is a straight line.
What is the y-intercept of a linear equation?
The y-intercept of a linear equation is the point where the graph of the line represented by that equation crosses the y-axis.
graph the linear equation y=-2 x +1?
-1
The value 11.7 represents the of the graph of the following linear regression equation?
slope
How is constant acceleration represented on a velocity time graph?
When an object moves in a straight line with constant acceleration, the equation describing its position (s) in terms of time (t) is a quadratic function like s = a t2 + b t + c, where a, b, and c are constants. The graph of such an equation is a parabola. However, if u plot velocity against time, the function is linear, and the graph is a straight line.
Can the average speed ever equal the instantaneous speed?
When there is no acceleration or when there is constant acceleration. When either of these cases is present, the graph of velocity versus time will be linear. When there is linear velocity, the average velocity will equal the instantaneous velocity at any point on the graph.
What is the graph of linear equation?
The graph will be a line.
When does an equation graph a line?
When it is a linear equation.
How can you represent acceleration on a linear graph?
The answer will depend on the variables plotted on the graph!
How do you graph a linear equation slope intercept?
You can graph a linear equation slope intercept by solving the equation and plugging in the numbers : y=mx+b
What can graph a linear equation?
the line
What does the graph of the equation 2x-3y equals 6 look like?
The equation 2x - 3y = 6 is a linear equation and a linear equation is always has a straight line as a graph
The slope of a speed-time linear graph is .?
acceleration
When the slope of v t graph is negative and constant what is the nature of acceleration?
acceleration is the slope of the v t graph... so the acceleration is constant and negative. In other words, the object is slowing down at a constant rate.
What would the graph look like on a position verse time plot with constant acceleration?
If the constant acceleration is positive, the graph would be an exponential (x2) graph. If there is constant acceleration, then velocity is always increasing, making the position change at an ever increasing rate.
What type of graph has a constant slope?
linear?
