Which point slope equation represents a line that passes through (3, -2) with a slope of - 4/5

1 answer:

3 0

We know that
the equation of a line in the point slope form is
y-y1=m*(x-x1)

if m=-4/5 and the point is (3,-2)
the equation is
y-y1=m*(x-x1)------> y-(-2)=(-4/5)*(x-3)----> y+2=(-4/5)*(x-3)

the answer is
 y + 2 = -4/5 (x - 3)

A data set consists of the following data points:

aleksley [76]

(3,5),
(5,8),
(6,13)
------
(14,26)/3

then use the point slope form of a line to find equation of line

 $y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
\\y - \frac{26}{3} = 2.5(x- \frac{14}{3})
\\y - \frac{26}{3} = \frac{5}{2} (x- \frac{14}{3})
\\y - \frac{26}{3} = \frac{5}{2} x- \frac{5}{2}\times\frac{14}{3}
\\y - \frac{26}{3} = \frac{5}{2} x- \frac{35}{3}
\\6y-52=15x-70
\\15x-6y-18=0$

Find y-intercept for x = 0.

 $15x-6y-18=0
\\15\times0-6y-18=0
\\-6y=18
\\y=-3$

5x +7 y=-17 4x – 3y = -5 Substitute.

Bond [772]

Answer:

(x,y) = (-2, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We start off by substituting the value of "x".

5x+7y=-17

x=- $\frac{5}{4} + \frac{3}{4}y$
