Q

Solve standard form for m.

A

A(0) + By = C
By = C
y = C/B
(0, C/B)

Ax + B(0) = C
Ax = C
x = C/A
(C/A, 0)

m = (0 - C/B) / (C/A - 0)
m = - C/B / C/A
m = - C/B * A/C
m = - AC / BC
m = - A / B

Q

Identify the values of the constants in the point-slope form of a line.

A

The point-slope form of a linear equation states that a line with slope m that passes through point (x1,y1) has equation y – y1 = m(x – x1). Any point (x,y) that satisfies the equation lies on the graph of the line.

Q

What is the difference between (x1,y1) and (x,y)

A

(x1,y1): is a known point on the line.

(x,y): could be any point that falls on the line.

Q

In the formula y = mx + b, what are x and y?

A

Known coordinates of the line.

17
Q

What is the point-slope formula?

A

y – y1 = m(x – x1)

18
Q

What are the charactaristics of a linear equation in standard form?

A

Ax + By = C
A, B, and C cannot share a common factor other than 1
The coefficients must all be integers, no fractions
A must be nonnegative.

19
Q

How would you solve: |x+a| < b

A

-b < x+a < b
-b-a < x < b-a

20
Q

How would you solve: |x+a| > b

A

x+a > b or x+a < -b
x> b-a or x < -b-a

21
Q

What should happen in the below:

-x < a

A

The inequality sign should flip when dividing by a negative.
x > -a
