ABOUT THIS TUTOR ›

y=mx + b is the standard slope intercept form for a line

m=1/2, b =-2

y=(1/2)x -2. y-intercept is -2 or the point (0,-2)

x intercept is found by setting y=0 and solving for x

0=(1/2)x - 2

(1/2)x = 2

x = 4 = the x intercept or (4,0)

plot the 2 intercepts (0,-2) and (4,0)

(4,0) is on the x axis, 4 units to the right of the origin (0,0)

(0,-2) is on the y axis, 2 units below the origin

once you plot those two points, draw a straight line connecting them. That's the graph of the line

what do you need me to answer?

step-by-step explanation:

7 ft 6 in means 7 1/2, because 6 in is 1/2 of a foot. 7 ft 8 in means 7 2/3 because 8 in is 2/3 of a foot. 23/3 = 7 2/3. 15/2 = 7 1/2.

23/3   *   15/2   = 57 1/2
