Does it matter which coordinate is (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) or can I just choose which coordinate I want it to be?​

Answer:

No, it doesn't matter which coordinate you assign (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Proof</u>

<u />

\textsf{let}\:(x_1,y_1)=(-1,-4)

\textsf{let}\:(x_2,y_2)=(2,2)

\implies \textsf{slope}\:(m)=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{2-(-1)}=2

\begin{aligned}y-y_1&=m(x-x_1)\\\implies y-(-4) &=2(x-(-1)\\y&=2x-2\end{aligned}

\textsf{let}\:(x_1,y_1)=(2,2)

\textsf{let}\:(x_2,y_2)=(-1,-4)

\implies \textsf{slope}\:(m)=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{-4-2}{-1-2}=2

\begin{aligned}y-y_1&=m(x-x_1)\\\implies y-2 &=2(x-2)\\y&=2x-2\end{aligned}

Answer:

Technically not on a graph but on a table yes it matter but here if I were you I would do (2,2) and (-1,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:   y=mx+b

(2,2) and (-1,-4)                  2=2(2)+b                     Answer is: y=2x+(-2)

x1 y1         x2 y2                2=4+b

-4-2=-6                           -2=b

-1-2=-3                    y-intercept

m=2

slope

An adult takes 800 mg of ibuprofen. Each hour, the amount of ibuprofen in the person's
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

116.31468544 mg ibuprofen left

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 800 mg at the beginning and the system decreases by about 32% of the ibuprofen

After 1 hour

→ 800 - (800x32/100) = 800 - 256 = 544 mg ibuprofen left

After 2 hours

→ 544 - (544x32/100) = 544 - 174.08 = 369.92 mg ibuprofen left

After 3 hours

→ 369.92 - (369.92x32/100) = 369.92 - 118.3744 = 251.5456 mg ibuprofen left

After 4 hours

→ 251.5456 - (251.5456x32/100) = 251.5456 - 80.494592 = 171.051008 mg ibuprofen left

After 5 hours

→ 171.051008 - (171.051008x32/100) = 171.051008 - 54.73632256 = 116.31468544 mg ibuprofen left

Set the equations equal to each other and solve for the variable x. then use the answer from x and plug it in to the equations and you should get an answer

3x=63

63÷3=x

21=x

x=21

that is the value of x

73 is the answer to the top equation and the bottom equation in the triangle. Meaning the equations are equal to each other when you have 21 plugged in for the variable x.
make sure to put your label if it asks for it. it means the book or the teacher. go by what the teacher says if it is different from what the book says
