Find the missing value given (-1,7)(-3,d) m= 6 HELP ASAP WILL MAKE BRAINLEST
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

d= -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is found by finding the ratio of change is y values to change is x values

m=y_2-y_1/x_2-x_1

The points on the line have coordinates at: (-1,7) (-3,d)

where ;

y_2=d, y_1=7,x_2=-3,x_1=-1,m=6

Applying the formula with values as;

6=\frac{d-7}{-3--1} \\\\6=\frac{d-7}{-3+1} \\\\6=\frac{d-7}{-2} \\\\6*-2=d-7\\\\-12=d-7\\\\-12+7=d\\\\-5=d

The value of d = -5

The coordinates of the points  (-1,7) (-3,-5)
