$-2y=3x-6\ \ \ \ |:(-2)\\\\y=-1.5x+3$

It's a slope-intercept form where a slope = -1.5 and y-intercept = 3.

x - intercept: y = 0

Therefore we have the equation:

-1.5x + 3 = 0 |-3

-1.5x = -3 |:(-1.5)

x = 2

Answer: x-intercept = 2, y-intercept = 3

Does the line passing through the points (−1,−5) and (2,1) intersect the line passing through the points (−1,−6) and (1,2)?

Serggg [28]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as the slopes of these two lines are not the same, they will intersect.

Given two points on a line, we can find the slope by taking the difference in the y coordinates and dividing it by the difference in the x coordinates.

Slope of 1st line: $\frac{-5-1}{-1-2} =\frac{-6}{-3} =\frac{1}{2}$

Slope of 2nd line: $\frac{-6-2}{-1-1} =\frac{-8}{-2}=4$

The slopes are not equal, therefore the lines intersect.

Please help me with this problem......

The red graph is the result of a vertical translation, 4 units down, of the black graph.

This means that, whenever the black graph associates

$x\mapsto f(x)$

The red graph must associate 4 less to the same input:

$x\mapsto f(x)-4$

So, the equation for the red graph is

$y=f(x)-4$

or, equivalently,

$y+4=f(x)$
