-2,3 is (x1,y1) and (4,-5) is (x2,y2) so you do y2-y1/x2-x1
y2-y1 is -5-3 which is -8 and x2-x1 is 4-(-2) which is 6 so you get
-8/6= -4/3
Answer:
Not a function.
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertical line touches the graph at more than one point at once.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the line in question is the same as the slope of the line parallel to it. Using y = mx + b, where m is the slope, we find the slope of our line is -3.
Using the pt-slope form, y - y1 = m( x - x1), we get y - (-1) = -3( x - 2) or y + 1 = -3x + 6. Which leads us to y = -3x + 5. QED
