What does the y and x represent in y equals slope times x plus y intercept during the equation to figure out a slope-intercept form?
Allker
x and y form an ordered pair representing the coordinates of every point on the line defined by the equation. x is the horizontal distance of a point from the origin, which is the point where the axes cross, while y is the vertical distance of the point from the origin.

Who invented the linear slope and y intercept?
I doubt any one person can be credited for deriving y = mx + b; where m = dy/dx is the slope and b is the y intercept. This is the kind of equation knowledgeable scientists and engineers would routinely derive during their daily courses of work.
What do you call a number that stands alone in an equation?
In an equation, a number that stands alone is called a constant. It is a fixed value that does not change during the equation or its solution.
How many solutions does the equation -0.2x plus 12x plus 11 equals 0?
Taken literally as...-0.2x + 12x + 11 = 0 (assuming nothing was lost during the question-asking process)...this equation as exactly one solution:-0.2x + 12x = -11x(-0.2 + 12) = -11x(11.8) = -11x = -11/11.8 = -110/118 = -55/59 = -0.9322
Have the roman numerals changed over time?
Yes, the Romans used the numeral IIII to represent the number 4 but it has since become more common to use the numeral IV. The Romans had no numeral for the number zero but during the middle ages monks, who wrote in Latin and used Roman numerals, introduced the character N (from the Latin Nullae, meaning nothing) to represent zero.
What is the answer if a man is three times as old as his son four years ago he was four times as old as his son How old is the son during that time?
Four years ago the son was 8, and the father 32. Now the son is 12, and the dad 36. To solve this problem, you should use the substitution method. The current age of the father(F) and the son(S) are represented by the equation F=3S. The mans age minus four years(F-4) is four times the sons minus four years(S-4), so the equation is (F-4)=4x(S-4). The next step is to simplify equation 2. (F-4)=4x(S-4) becomes F-4=4S-16, and then F=4S-12. Now you substitute equation one into equation two. F=3S, F=4S-12 3S=4S-12 Simplify to find the current age of the son: 0=1S-12 12 = S

What symbols represent the stage of interphase?
During interphase, the cell is in a period of growth and preparation for division. There are no specific symbols that represent interphase. However, interphase is often depicted using a symbol such as a stretched-out "S" to represent DNA replication during the S phase or a circle to represent the cell cycle as a whole.
