Answer 1

To determine whether the graph of the equation \(3x - y = 10\) is correct, we can rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form \(y = mx + b\), where \(m\) is the slope and \(b\) is the y-intercept.

Starting with the original equation:

1. Rewrite the equation in the form \(y = mx + b\):

   \[ 3x - y = 10 \]

   Rearranging gives:

   \[ -y = -3x + 10 \]

   Multiplying everything by -1 yields:

   \[ y = 3x - 10 \]

2. From this form, we can see:

   • The slope \(m\) is \(3\).
   • The y-intercept \(b\) is \(-10\) (the point where the line crosses the y-axis, which is \((0, -10)\)).

Now, let's evaluate the statements provided:

1. Yes, it is the correct graph because the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is (0, -10).

This statement is correct.

2. Yes, it is the correct graph because the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is (0, -10).

This statement is incorrect because the slope is \(3\), not \(-3\).

3. No, it is not the correct graph because the slope is -3 and the y-intercept is (0, -10).

This statement is also incorrect for the same reason; the slope is \(3\).

4. No, it is not the correct graph because the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is (0, -10).

This statement is incorrect as well because it is actually the correct graph.

So, the correct response is the first one: Yes, it is the correct graph because the slope is 3 and the y-intercept is (0, -10).
