What happens to a line when the y intercept is changed?
The y-intercept is the point where the line crosses the y-axis. If you change the y-intercept, that means that the line crosses the y-axis somewhere else. Depending on what remains constant, you may get different results. For example, if you don't change the slope, the entire line will simply move up or down.
What happens to a line as its slope is incrementally decreased from one to zero?
It approaches a horizontal line
What happens you got a simian line?
i have a simian line and i am fine but in some cases people who have downes syndrome normally have a simian line.
What happens when you try to calculate the slope of a vertical line?
You cannot: the slope is not defined.
Using only one straight line can you turn this 101010 into nine fifty?
The straight line is added to the second 1 which changed it to a "t", making it 10 to 10 (9:50).
What are the slope and yintercept of line 5x 10y 15?
Without the inclusion of an equality sign and not knowing the plus or minus values of the given terms it can't be considered to be a straight line equation
How do you write an equation of a line that passes through the xintercep and yintercept?
You can write it either in standard form (ax + by = c) or in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b)
What happens to a line as its slope is incrementally changed from zero to undefined?
The line rotates anti-clockwise, from a horizontal to a vertical position.
What happens to a line when the intercept is changed?
If the slope remains the same then the new and old lines are parallel. The whole line moves either up or down.
What happens to a line when y-intercept is changed?
It moves higher or lower on the plane, while remaining parallel to the original.
What happens when y equals x is changed to y equals x plus 2?
The whole line 'shifts up' by two units, and is parallel to the original line (same slope)
What happens to the line y equals -6x-2 when it is changed to y equals -6x plus 6?
It is translated upwards by 8 units.
What is the slope and yintercept of y plus 4x plus 3?
There is no slope nor intercept because there is no equation, simply an expression.
How has the assembly line changed over the years?
it changed by... well it changed... It just changed!
What happens when the line y x is changed to y x 2?
If you mean: y = x and y = x+2 then the lines are then parallel to each
What happens to a product if the factors are changed?
Nothing happens.
What is a slope used for?
It shows the relationship of y in terms of x. [y = (yIntercept) + ((slope)*(x))] [slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)]
