a.
To fill: The blank space for m and b so that the given statement is true.
a.
Answer to Problem 2CA
When m = 1 and b = 5, the graph of the equation passes through the point
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The equation:
The statement:
When m = ___ and b = ___, the graph of the equation passes through the point
The given equation is
Consider that the slope, m be 1.
Substitute 1 for m ,
Hence, when m = 1 and b = 5, the graph of the equation passes through the point
b.
To fill: The blank space for m and b so that the given statement is true.
b.
Answer to Problem 2CA
When m = 1 and b = −3, the graph of the equation has a positive slope and passes through the point
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The equation:
The statement:
When m = ___ and b = ___, the graph of the equation has a positive slope and passes through the point
The given equation is
Consider that the slope, m be 1.
Substitute 1 for m ,
Hence, when m = 1 and b = −3, the graph of the equation has a positive slope and passes through the point
c.
To fill: The blank space for m and b so that the given statement is true.
c.
Answer to Problem 2CA
When m =
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
The equation:
The statement:
When m = ___ and b = ___, the graph of the equation is perpendicular to the graph of
The given equation is
Since, the lines are perpendicular so the slopes of the lines are negative reciprocal of each other.
So, the slope is
Substitute
Hence, when m =
