C street has an x-intercept of -8 and a slope of 2. use the x-intercept point to write the equation of c street in point slope form.
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: y-0=2(x+8)<--you had a type-o.
\n" ); document.write( "You get this because the x-intercept is (-8,0) and the slope, m=2
\n" ); document.write( "The point-slope formula is \"highlight%28y-y1=m%28x-x1%29%29\", where m=slope and (x1,y1) is a given point on the line.
\n" ); document.write( "Good job: \"y-0=2%28x%2B8%29\" is right.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "D street crosses c street at the point (-10,-4) and is perpendicular to the y-axis. Determine the y-intercept point and write the equation of d street.
\n" ); document.write( "A line that is perpendicular to the y-axis is horizontal. Horizontal lines have a slope of m=0
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B4=0%28x%2B10%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y%2B4=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=-4\" <---the equation of a horizontal line always ends up being y=k, where k is a constant and there is no x. Notice that k is the y component of the point it went through. That also always happens.
\n" ); document.write( "The y-intercept is (0,-4), because all the points on a horizontal line have the same y-value.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "G street crosses f street at the point (3,7) and is parallel to d street. Determine the y-intercept point of g street and write the equation of g street.
\n" ); document.write( "If G is parallel to D, then it is also horizontal, so the equation of a horizontal line going through (3,7) is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"y=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "Its y-intercept is: (0,7)
\n" ); document.write( "Happy Calculating!!!
