The slope-intercept form is y=mx+b y = m x + b , where m m is the slope and b b is the y-intercept. Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is 25 2 5 . The equation of a perpendicular line to y=2×5−3 y = 2 x 5 – 3 must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

Hence, the slope of the line parallel to the line y+2x=2 is m=−2.

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is 34 . All lines that are parallel to y=3×4+2 y = 3 x 4 + 2 have the same slope of 34 .

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is −12 . The equation of a perpendicular line to y=−x2+5 y = – x 2 + 5 must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

Using the slope-intercept form, the slope is 0 0 . The perpendicular line is vertical and the slope is undefined.

The equation of a perpendicular line to y=5 must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope. The negative reciprocal of 0 is −10 , which is ∞ . Since the slope for the perpendicular line is ∞ , the line is perpendicular to the x-axis.

No. All linear functions can be written in the form y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (slope-intercept form). This function, y = 5/x, is a hyperbola, with a vertical asymptote at x = 0 and horizontal asymptote at y = 0.

Explanation: A linear equation would be represented in the formula of y=mx+b . The equation y=3x−10 also follows the same format. The m value is 3 and the b value is -10.

1 Answer. y=6x will give a hyperbola. It is not linear.

This equation is linear, because each term is either a constant or the product of a constant and the first power of a single variable.

Explanation: The equation y=6 means for each and every value of x , y will be equal to 6 .

2 Answers By Expert Tutors. The nice thing about this question is that you just have to plug in the answer to the slope intercept form! Slope intercept form of a linear equation is y = mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

One form of the equation of a straight line is called the slope-intercept form because it contains information about these two properties. In the equation y = mx + c the value of m is called the slope, (or gradient), of the line. It can be positive, negative or zero.

Remember, the point-slope formula is only one type of linear equation. It is effective in describing some of the characteristics of a straight line. The standard form of an equation is Ax + By = C. In this kind of equation, x and y are variables and A, B, and C are integers.
