Question

In The Xy-Plane, Find The Slope And Y-Intercept Of The Straight Line 2Y + X =6

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope =-1/2

y-intercept= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Concept used:

Slope - Intercept form of straight line is

$\bold{y=mx+c}$

Given line is

$2y+x=6$

$\implies\:2y=-x+6$

$\implies\:y=\frac{-1}{2}x+\frac{6}{2}$

$\implies\:y=\frac{-1}{2}x+3$

comparing this equation with $y=mx+c$ we get

$m=\frac{-1}{2}\:and\:c=3$

Slope =-1/2

y-intercept= 3

Answer 2

Answer:

slope=(-1/2)

Y-intercept=3

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation, Y=mX+c

m- slope c-Y-intercept

So rewriting the given equation,

2Y+X=6, Y=(-X/2) +3

So m=slope=(-1/2)

c=Y-intercept=3
