Concept explainers
(a)
To calculate: To graph the equation using slope and y-intercept
(a)
Answer to Problem 8.7MPS
Graph is plotted
Explanation of Solution
Given information: A gym charges a
Formula Used:
Slope intercept form of line is
Calculation:
Given that a gym charges a
On comparing the above equation with slope-intercept form of line
Since y-intercept,
This means point on graph is
Also, slope
Thus, point on graph is
Plotting the points on graph,
Conclusion:
Hence, the graph is plotted
(b)
To calculate: To state the slope and y-intercept using the graph of the equation
(b)
