X=number of years after 2000.
y=percentage of residents (still) reads newspapers for information
initial value (= y-intercept) = percentage in 2000 = 54%
slope = increase each year = -1.7% (because it is a decrease)
the slope intercept form of the equation is therefore:
y=slope(x)+initial value, or
y=-1.7x+54   (in %)

Find an equation in point slope form that passes through the points -1,3 and 1,7 show all your work
liberstina [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the slope:

   7 -3/ 1 + 1 = 4/2 = 2 = m

2.  Find b by plugging in the m and one of the points given into y = mx + b

     7 = 2 ( 1 ) + b

     7 = 2 + b

      5 = b

3. Write the equation using the m and the b you just found

 y =2 x + 5
