Question

График функции y=-2 4x+b проходит через точку с координатами (6 -11)

Answer 1

b=3.4

Explanation:

The question in English is

The graph of the function y=-2.4x+b passes through the point with the coordinates (6;-11) find the number b

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

`y=mx+b`

where

m is the slope b is the y-intercept

In this problem we have

`y=-2.4x+b` ----> linear equation in slope intercept form

we have the ordered pair (6,-11)

substitute the value of x and y in the linear equation and solve for b

`-11=-2.4(6)+b`

solve for b

`-11=-14.4+b`

Adds 14.4 both sides

`b=-11+14.4\\b=3.4`
