\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ m=\frac{6-1}{-1+8}=\frac{5}{7} \\ 6=\frac{5}{7}(-1)+b \\ 6+\frac{5}{7}=b \\ b=\frac{42+5}{7}=\frac{47}{7} \\ y=\frac{5}{7}x+\frac{47}{7} \end{gathered}

For the second line

\begin{gathered} y=mx+b \\ m=\frac{-5-0}{-8+3}=\frac{-5}{-5}=1 \\ 0=1(-3)+b \\ b=3 \\ y=x+3 \end{gathered}

The intersection will be

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{5}{7}x+\frac{47}{7} \\ x+3=\frac{5}{7}x+\frac{47}{7} \\ x-\frac{5}{7}x=\frac{47}{7}-3 \\ \frac{7x-5x}{7}=\frac{47-21}{7} \\ \frac{2x}{7}=\frac{26}{7} \\ 14x=182 \\ x=\frac{182}{14} \\ x=13 \\  \\ y=13+3=16 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the point of intersection is (13, 16)

Please help I need to know the rule in correspondence to the pattern?
trasher [3.6K]

You can see that an odd number of steps is simply multiplying the number of steps by a number that moves up one each time. For instance, 1*1, 3*2, 5*3, etc. It's a bit harder with the even numbers. Their pattern is multiplying half the number of steps by 1.5, but the ones place value moves up a number each time, for example, 2*1.5, 4*2.5, 6*3.5. This means that 10 steps is 10 * 5.5, or 55 blocks and that 100 is 5,050 steps.
