Description

Describe what this variable represents, and list any assumptions made about its value.

Can an exam override the value of this variable?

Generated value: `integer`

popgrad

Advice

{apps}

Rearrange the given equation to find the gradient:

\[ \simplify[all]{{a}x + {b}y + {c} = 0} \]

\[ y = \simplify[FractionNumbers]{{-a/b}x-{c/b}} \]

Therefore the gradient, $m_1$, is equal to $\simplify[FractionNumbers]{{m}}$.

Since we want the {pop} line, then the gradient of the new line, $m_2$, will {popgrad}, and therefore $m_2 = \simplify[FractionNumbers]{{newm}}$.

{apps2}

We can now take the equation $y = mx + c$, and subsitute in $m_2$ along with $(x,y) = (\var{x},\var{y})$, to give:

\[ \var{y} = \simplify[FractionNumbers]{{newm}} \times \simplify[FractionNumbers]{{x}} + c \]

and rearrange to calculate

\[ c = \simplify[FractionNumbers]{{y} - {newm}*{x}} \]
\[ c = \simplify[FractionNumbers]{{y - newm*x}} \].

Therefore

\[y = \simplify[FractionNumbers]{{newm}*x +{y - newm*x}}\].
