600=350+1.25x
250=1.25x Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 600=350+1.25x
250=1.25x
They are equivalent. They have all the same solutions.
Simplify the first by subtracting 350 from both sides and it becomes the second.
Since we have only one variable it is a vertical line. where
x=250/1.25
x=25000/125
so
x=200 with slope undefined and y anything you want. never changes.
It doesn't really have a y=mx+b form
Since m is undefined and it never cross the y axis.
Standard form is ax+by+c=0 the b's are not the same b's
as in the slope form
If we were told that y=350+1.25x and y =600
that would be a different line with slope 1.25 and y intercept at (0, 350)
