Math Problem Statement

For each equation identify the slope ( m) and y-intercept ( b)

For each equation identify the slope (m) and y-intercept (b).

Solution

PIL import Image import pytesseract

Load the uploaded image to extract text

image_path = "/mnt/data/1733344923208bw03tvvw.jpg" extracted_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(Image.open(image_path))

extracted_textThe text extraction from the image seems incomplete or distorted. Let me manually interpret and transcribe the equations accurately from the image:

  1. y=x+3y = -x + 3
  2. y=4x1y = -4x - 1
  3. 2xy=12x - y = 1
  4. x+2y=8x + 2y = -8
  5. 8x+3y=98x + 3y = -9
  6. 4x+5y=104x + 5y = -10
  7. xy=2x - y = -2
  8. 4x3y=94x - 3y = 9

Now, I'll identify the slope (mm) and y-intercept (bb) for each equation. Define a function to extract slope and y-intercept def get_slope_intercept(equation): # Reformat the equation to slope-intercept form y = mx + b if "y" in equation and "=" in equation: lhs, rhs = equation.split("=") lhs = lhs.strip() rhs = rhs.strip() if lhs == "y": # Directly in slope-intercept form terms = rhs.split() slope = float(terms[0].replace("x", "")) if "x" in terms[0] else 0 intercept = float(terms[1]) if len(terms) > 1 else 0 else: # Bring y to the LHS and format terms = lhs.split() for term in terms: if "y" in term: slope = float(rhs.split()[0].replace("x", "").strip()) # Here are the steps to calculate the slope (mm) and yy-intercept (bb) for each equation:

  1. y=x+3y = -x + 3:

    • Slope (m): -1
    • Y-intercept (b): 3
  2. y=4x1y = -4x - 1:

    • Slope (m): -4
    • Y-intercept (b): -1
  3. 2xy=12x - y = 1 (Rewritten: y=2x1y = 2x - 1):

    • Slope (m): 2
    • Y-intercept (b): -1
  4. x+2y=8x + 2y = -8 (Rewritten: y=12x4y = -\frac{1}{2}x - 4):

    • Slope (m): 12-\frac{1}{2}
    • Y-intercept (b): -4
  5. 8x+3y=98x + 3y = -9 (Rewritten: y=83x3y = -\frac{8}{3}x - 3):

    • Slope (m): 83-\frac{8}{3}
    • Y-intercept (b): -3
  6. 4x+5y=104x + 5y = -10 (Rewritten: y=45x2y = -\frac{4}{5}x - 2):

    • Slope (m): 45-\frac{4}{5}
    • Y-intercept (b): -2
  7. xy=2x - y = -2 (Rewritten: y=x+2y = x + 2):

    • Slope (m): 1
    • Y-intercept (b): 2
  8. 4x3y=94x - 3y = 9 (Rewritten: y=43x3y = \frac{4}{3}x - 3):

    • Slope (m): 43\frac{4}{3}
    • Y-intercept (b): -3

Tip

Always arrange your equation in the form y=mx+by = mx + b to easily identify the slope and y-intercept.
