How is the slope of a linear function related to the number of zeros for the function?
Solution:
We know that the number of zeros for the linear function is 1.
The slope-intercept form can be used
y = mx + b
Where m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
For example consider the linear function y = 3x + 1
Here 3 is the slope
1 is the y-intercept
The slope is the coefficient of x in the slope-intercept form.
As the degree of the linear function is 1, the number of zeros is 1.
Therefore, for a linear function, the number of zeros should be 1.
How is the slope of a linear function related to the number of zeros for the function?
Summary:
The slope of a linear function helps to determine the number of zeros for the function.
