Question

What’s the gradient and y intercept for c and e and could u explain pls thx

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

if you are given an equation of a form y=kx+b, k is gradient and b is y-intercept

in c you can write this equation as y=(2x/3)-2,so gradient = 2/3 and y-intercept =-2

in e:6y=2x+3

y=x/3+1/2,gradient = 1/3, y-intercept=1/2

Answer 2

The gradient or Slope in a linear equation is simply the value "a" in this equation : y = ax + b

And the y-intercept is simply the value b.

so for example, what is the slope of y = 5x + 3 ? What is the y-intercept ? Well the gradient (or slope) is 5, and the y-intercept is 3.

So, for a.

y = -1/2x + 8

it's pretty simple : gradient = -1/2

y intercept = 8

Now for c.

$y=\frac{2x-6}{3}$

$y=\frac{2}{3}x-\frac{6}{3}$

$y=\frac{2}{3}x-2$

So the gradient is 2/3 and the y intercept is -2 (and not +2, be careful there is a negative sign :) )

e.

-2x + 6y - 3 = 0

6y = 2x + 3

y = (2/6)*x + (3/6)

y = (1/3)*x + (1/2)

so the gradient is 1/3

and the y-intercept is 1/2

Good luck, your the best :)
