3.1-84 Graph the equation using the x-and y-intercepts. Uset a third point to check.
For finding x-intercept, put y = 0
-2x = 4
x = -2
x-intercept is (-2, 0)
for finding y-intercept, put x = 0
y = 4
y-intercept is (0, 4)
A third point on graph of line is (-1, 2) and it also satisfies the equation
-2x + y = 4.
3.2-38 Find the slope of the line that goes through (-0.1, 0.2) and (0.5, 0.8).
Slope = =1
3.2-42 Graph the line through (-2, 5) with slope of -1.
3.3-30 Find the slope and y-intercept, if they exist, for the line .
Solve equation for y
x - y = 4
-y = -x + 4
y = x - 4
Slope = 1, y-intercept: (0, -4)
3.3-82 Write an equation in slope-intercept form, if possible for the line through
(0, -1) that is perpendicular to the line .
Slope of perpendicular line will be -1.
Equation of line will be
y - (-1) = -1(x - 0)
y + 1 = -x
y = -x - 1
3.4-22 Find the equation of the line through (-3, 1) with slope -1/3. Write answer in slope intercept form.
Equation of line will be
y - 1 = -(1/3)(x - (-3))
y - 1 = -(1/3)x - 1
y = -(1/3)x
3.4-50 Find the equation of the line parallel to that goes through the point (-3, 6). Write answer in slope-intercept form.
Slope of parallel line will be -1.
Equation of line will be
y - 6 = -1(x - (-3))
y - 6 = -x - 3
y = -x + 3
3.5-14 Write a foumula that expresses the relationship describe by the statement "t is inversely proportional to e." Use k as the constant.
3.5-34 Gas Laws. The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure on the gas. If the volume is 6 cubic centimeters when the pressure is 8 kilograms per square centimeter, then what is the volume when the pressure is 12 kilograms per square centimeter?
Let the volume be V and pressure be P
If the volume is 6 cubic centimeters when the pressure is 8 kilograms per square centimeter
Now, cubic centimeters
3.6-2 How can you tell if an ordered pair satisfies a linear inequality in two variables?
We substitute the values of coordinates in linear inequality to check if it satisfies the linear inequality or not.
3.6-10 Determine which of the following points satisfy .
Check for (-2, 6)
2x + y = 2*(-2) + 6 = -4 + 6 = 2 < 3
Thus, (-2, 6) satisfies the inequality.
Check for (0, 3)
2x + y = 2*0 + 3 = 3 which is not less than 3
Thus, (0, 3) does not satisfy the inequality.
Check for (3, 0)
2x + y = 2*3 + 0 = 6 which is not less than 3
Thus, (3, 0) does not satisfy the inequality.
