Determine the system of equations illustrated in each graph. Write equations in standard form.
Graph showing two intersecting lines with points labeled (5/2, 1/2) and (2, 3) on the coordinate plane.

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Identify two points on the first line. From the graph, these points are (-8, 0) and (-4, 0).
Calculate the slope of the first line using the formula \(m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\). Since both points have \(y=0\), the slope is \(m = 0\).
Write the equation of the first line in slope-intercept form: \(y = 0\). Convert this to standard form: \(y = 0\) or \(0x + y = 0\).
Identify two points on the second line. From the graph, these points are (0, 10) and (0, -3).
Calculate the slope of the second line using the formula \(m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}\). Since both points have \(x=0\), the slope is undefined, indicating a vertical line. The equation is \(x = 0\) in standard form.

Finding the Equation of a Line from Intercepts

A line can be determined using its x- and y-intercepts by applying the intercept form of a linear equation. The formula is \( \frac{x}{a} + \frac{y}{b} = 1 \), where \(a\) and \(b\) are the x- and y-intercepts respectively. This form helps quickly write the equation when intercepts are known from the graph.

Converting to Standard Form of a Linear Equation

The standard form of a linear equation is \(Ax + By = C\), where A, B, and C are integers, and A ≥ 0. After finding the equation from intercepts or slope-intercept form, rearranging terms to this form is essential for consistency and comparison of linear equations.
