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

z = 3m - 2n

Step-by-step explanation:

1000^m ÷ 100^n

Rewrite them in exponent form

That's

10^3m ÷ 10^2n

Since the bases are the same and they are dividing we subtract the exponents

That's

10^3m - 2n

Comparing it with 10^z

10^3m - 2n = 10^z

z = 3m - 2n

Hope this helps you
