Question

Determine the equation of the line that passes through the given points. (If you have a graphing calculator, you can use the table feature to confirm that the coordinates of both points satisfy your equation.) (-5, 10) and (5, -10) a. y = 2x-10 b. C. d. y = 2x y = -2x+ 20 y=-2x A​

Answer 1

Answer:

y = -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

It passes through -5, 10 and 5, -10

gradient = Δy/Δx

gradient = -10 - 10 / 5 -- 5

gradient = -20 / 10

gradient = -2

let's use -5, 10 for y = mx + b

10 = -2(-5) + b

10 = 10 + b

b = 10 - 10

b = 0.

the equation of the line is just y = -2x
