The equation of the line that passes through the given points is            y= -4x+23.

<h3>Linear Function</h3>

A line can be represented by a linear function. The standard form for the linear equation is: ax+b , for example, y=2x+7. Where:

a= the slope

b=constant term that represents the y-intercept.

From the stardard form equation:

  • For point (5,3) : 3=5a+b ( equation 1)
  • For point (9,-13) : -13=9a+b (equation 2)

Solving the system for equations 1 and 2.

3=5a+b

-13=9a+b * (-1)

3=5a+b

13=-9a-b * (-1)

16= -4a

4= -a

a= -4

If a= -4 from equation 1, you have

3= 5 * (-4)+b

3= -20+b

b=23

Therefore, the line equation is y= -4x+23.

Rashid [163]

Answer:

She worked 12 hours for the week

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Hours worked :

Mondays = 40 hours

Tuesdays = 8 hours

If 1/4 of regular hours was worked in a certain week, the number of hours worked that week can be calculated thus ;

1/4 (Monday hours + Tuesday hours)

1/4(40 + 8)

(1/4 * 40) + (1/4 * 8)

10 + 2

= 12 hours
