In this case, you aren't going to get an integer for the value of a, but you can rearrange the equation to equal a.
4a-3=D add 3 to both sides
4a=D+3 divide both sides by 4
a=(D+3)/4 here's your answer
Answer:
8.37
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to make a table, we sample some x values (whichever we want), and we compute the expression for those value. Each x value will yield a unique y value.
If you need this table to graph the function, you'll only need two points, since this is a line, and having two points you just need to connect them.
Here are some samples, feel free to make more if you need to:
So, we have the following table
Answer is D
sum of constants = 8 + 4 = 12
sum of coefficients = 7 + 3 = 10
12 > 10
<u>Answer:</u>
y=-1/4x-1
<u>How to find the </u><u>slope</u>
To find the slope of the line you need to do the change in y/change in x. This is also known as the rise/run. To do this you count the spaces in between the two points.
In this graph the change in y (rise) is 2. The change in x (run) is 8. Since the line is going down they are negative. The rise/run is -2/8. This can be simplified to -1/4.
Slope: -1/4x
<u>How to find the y-intercept</u>
To find the y-intercept, you need to look at where the line crosses y.
In this graph the line crosses y at -1.
Y-intercept: -1
