Answer:
Ok! When given points, to find the slope, you would use this equation: y2-y1/x2-x1. Let me demonstrate. In this set to find the slope with the coordinates (10,8) and (14,20), the y2 value is 20, and the y1 value is 8, and the x2 value is 14, and the y1 value is 10. So, your equation would look like this: (20-8)/(14-10), which simplifies to 12/4, or 3! So the slope is three, and that's how you do that when using an equation. OR, you could graph them, but that isn't too reliable so I do not recommend trying it, since you may not create the right slope.

Required
Find x
To do this, we have:
--- similar triangles
So, we have the following equivalent ratios

Where:

Substitute these in the above equation


Express as fraction


Cross multiply

Open bracket

Rewrite as:

Factorize

Factor out x + 284

Split

Solve for x

x can't be negative;
So:

The property x^axb makes it x^a+b so x^5x-2 ,
Therefore x^-10 is final
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y - y1 = m(x - x1) y1 = 1 x1 = 2 m = -1/3
y - 1 = -1/3(x - 2)
y = -x/3 + 2/3
