Which phrase can be represented by an equation? twice as much as a number 12 less than a number half of a number is 15 the difference of 20 and a number

Half of a number is 15

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, add commas between each option so it's easier to read I had a hard time figuring out what the options were because of this.

An equation is a statement that the values of two mathematical expressions are equal. An expression is a collection of symbols that jointly express a quantity. This means there has to be an equal sign when the phrases are put into numerical form.

Twice as much as a number:              2X

12 less than a number:                        X - 12

Half of a number is 15:                        X/2 = 15

The difference of 20 and a number: 20 - X

As you can see, only one of these phrases is an equation by definition, and that is X/2 = 15, or half of a number is 15. That's because it's the only one that values two expressions as equal.

-1/2 +2

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
