Answer:

-7.75

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{if}\ x = 8 \rightarrow y = 124\\y \propto x\\y = kx\\\\124 = k \times 8 = 8k\\\frac{124}{8} = \frac{8k}{8}\\15.5 = k\\\\\text{We've now found the formula}\\y \propto x\\y = kx = 15.5x\\\\x = -\frac{1}{2} \rightarrow y = ?\\y = 15.5x = 15.5 \times -\frac{1}{2} = -7.75

Identify the meaning of the variables in the point-slope form of a line.
hjlf

Answer:

(x,y) = Any point on the line

m = the slope of the line

(x₁, y₁) = A given point on the line

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a straight line is;

y = mx + c

where;

x and y are any point on the line

m is the slope of the line

c is the intercept on the y axis

And a given point on (x,y) can be written as (x₁, y₁)

Therefore, for the case above;

(x,y) = Any point on the line

m = the slope of the line

(x₁, y₁) = A given point on the line
