e. y= -1.4x f.y= 2.673x g. y= 3 2/3x h. y= -8x Found 2 solutions by tutorcecilia, funmath:Answer by tutorcecilia(2152) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Use the formula y=mx+b where the m-term represents the value of the slope
.
1.
a. y = 7x
Slope = 7
.
b.y= -3x
Slope = m=-3
.
c. y= x
Slope=m=1
.
d. y= 1/2x
Slope=m=1/2
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Identify the slope of each direct variation
The slope is the coefficient of x. (The number multiplied by x)
1.
a. The slope is 7.
b. y= -3x The slope is -3
c. y= x The slope is 1, because 1 times x is x
d. y= 1/2x The slope is 1/2
e. y= -1.4x The slope is -1.4
f. y= 2.673x The slope is 2.673
g. y= 3 2/3x The slope is 3 2/3
h. y= -8x The slope is -8
Happy Calculating!!!!
