(7,5)(-4,-1)
slope = (-1-5) / (-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 6/11
(-4,-1)...x1 = -4 and y1 = -1
now we sub...pay close attention to ur signs
y - (-1) = 6/11(x - (-4) ...not done yet...
y + 1 = 6/11(x + 4) <===
Answer:
y-1 = 5(x+8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The standard equation of a line in point slope form is expressed as;
y-y0 = m(x-x0)
m is the slope
(x0, y0) is the point
Given
Slope m = 5 (assumed value)
Point (-8,1)
Substitute the given data's into the formula
y -1 = 5(x-(-8))
y-1 = 5(x+8)
Hence the required equation is y-1 = 5(x+8)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b
The line y = 3 is a horizontal line with slope zero
y = 0x + 3
All parallel lines will also have a slope zero
a parallel line passing through (-2, 7) will have the equation
y = 0x + 7
y = 7
Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 3 = -(x + 1)
open the bracket
x + 3 = -x -1
x+x= -1-3
2x= -4
X = -4/2= -2
