Comment on Slope y-intercept Form
I have struggle with this one
Sorry, but I don't understand
Sorry, but I don't understand what you're asking. Can you please elaborate.
Are you referring to a specific GRE question?
Hi Mr Hanneson,
I have a question, What if the slope of an equation (Value of m) is an integer eg:4,6,-9 etc. how to determine the run(denominator) and draw a line.
thankyou,
ABDUL HANNAN
Keep in mind that all
Keep in mind that all integers can be written as a fraction with denominator 1.
For example, 3 = 3/1 and -9 = -9/1
So, if the slope is 5, we can say the slope is 5/1.
This means the rise is 5 and the run is 1.
Does that help?
Cheers,
Brent
Hi Brent, in the example
There are 2 directions we can
There are 2 directions we can go.
If the slope is -2/5, then we can have a "rise" of -2 (i.e., go DOWN 2 units) and a "run" of 5 ((i.e., go RIGHT 5 units). Here, rise/run = -2/5
OR
If the slope is -2/5, then we can have a "rise" of 2 (i.e., go UP 2 units) and a "run" of -5 ((i.e., go LEFT 5 units). Here, rise/run = 2/-5, which is the same as -2/5
Does that help?

Hi Brent, would y = -3 / 2 x
Yes, y = (-3/2)x + 3 is the
Yes, y = (-3/2)x + 3 is the slope y-intercept form of the equation 3x + 2y = 6
