What else can I help you with?
What appears in the equation of a line as the coefficient of the variable?
It is the slope of the line as for example y=3x+6 whereas 3 is the slope and 6 is the y intercept.
How can you find coordinates on a line graph?
Select any value for one of the variables in the graph and solve the equation to get the other variable.
In the generalized slope-intercept equation of a line the slope of the line is represented as the coefficient of the variable x?
Your statement is correct. y=mx+b when m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
How do you find the standard form of a linear equation knowing only the y intercept and the slope IE A line has a slope of 5 over 3 and a y intercept of 1 over 2 State the equation in standard form?
Since we know the slope, m = 5/3, and the y-intercept 1/2, we arw able to write the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, so we have y = (5/3)x + 1/2.The standard form of the equation of the line is Ax + By = C.y = (5/3)x + 1/2y - y - 1/2 = (5/3)x - y + 1/2 - 1/2-1/2 = (5/3)x - y or(5/3)x - y = -1/2Thus, the standard form, Ax + By = C, of the equation of the line is (5/3)x - y = -1/2.
What is the equation of the line that passes through 1 2 and is parallel to the line whose equation is 4x plus y minus 1 equals 0?
As the second line is parallel to the first then the slopes of both lines are the same. 4x + y - 1 = 0 : y = -4x + 1 : Therefore the slope is -4. Using the standard slope-intercept equation of y = mx + c for the second line gives :- 2 = -4x1 + c : 2 = -4 + c : c = 2 + 4 = 6. Therefore the equation of the second line is y = -4x + 6. (Or y + 4x - 6 = 0)
What does the equation for a linear relationship stand for?
y=mx+b is the equation for a linear relationship. y= the dependant variable m= the slope of the line x= the independent variable b= the y-intercept
What does each variable represent in standard form?
There are different standard forms for different things. There is a standard form for scientific notation. There is a standard form for the equation of a line, circle, ellipse, hyperbola and so on.
What is the definition of standard form of an equation of a line?
There is not one, but several, standard forms for the equation of a line: for example, the slope-intercept form (which is basically the equation, solved for variable "y"); the form Ax + By + c = 0; and others.
The appears in the equation of a line as the coefficient of the variable x?
slope
Why does b represent the y-intercept?
B is just a constant variable. In the standard form for the equation of a line y= ax +b. When x = 0, this is where we cross the y axis and the equation evaluates to b.
What is the formula for the standard equation of a line?
The standard expression for a straight line graph is y = ax + b
What type of equation has a graph that is horizontal?
It is likely that a horizontal line on a graph will have the equation y=c, where c is a variable.
What is the standard equation?
There is no such thing as a standard equation. Furthermore, there are standard forms - all different - for the equation of a line, a circle, a plane, a parabola, an ellipse and so on. the question needs to be more specific.
What do the letter x and y stand for?
X and Y do not stand for anything. They are merely letters that represent a variable in an algebraic equation. X is generally used as the first variable, and Y is used as the second variable, to differentiate the difference between two variables so one letter does not need to be used for two variables. In GRAPHS, they stand for the axis line. X is the horizontal axis, and Y is the vertical axis.
Differentiate of dependent and independent variable?
The dependent variable depends on the independent variable for its values as for example in the straight line equation: y = 2x+1 It is y that is the dependent variable and x the independent variable.
What the meaning of dependent variable?
The dependent variable depends on the independent variable for its values as for example in the straight line equation y = 2x+6 whereas y is the dependent variable and x is the independent variable
How would you write an equation of a line in standard form?
the formula for standard form is Ax+By=C
