Answer:
y = 2/3x +6 for x< -3
y = 2/3x +1 for x> 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph is a line for x < -3
( - 6,2) and ( -3,4)
The slope is m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = ( 4-2)/(-3 - -6) = 2/ ( -3+6) = 2/3
The slope is 2/3
Using point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1) and the point ( -6,2)
y -2 = 2/3(x - -6)
y -2 = 2/3(x +6)
y-2 = 2/3 x +4
y = 2/3x +6 x< -3
The graph is a line for x > 3
(3,3) and ( 6,5)
The slope is m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = ( 5-3)/(6-3) = 2/ (3) = 2/3
The slope is 2/3
Using point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1) and the point (6,5)
y -5 = 2/3(x - 6)
y-5 = 2/3 x -4
y = 2/3x +1 x> 3
Answer:
- Slope: -2
- equation: y = -2x +5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given point is the y-intercept of the line, so the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line can be used:
y = mx + b . . . . for slope m and y-intercept b
Here, you have the slope given as ...
m = -2
y-intercept = 5
so the equation of the line is ...
y = -2x +5
_____
The y-intercept is the value of y when x=0. The point (x, y) = (0, 5) tells you the y-intercept is 5.
