The slope of the line l is the opposite reciprocal of y+2x=9. Rearranged the equation to y=9-2x and we get a slope of -2. The opposite reciprocal of -2 is 1/2.

y-y=m(x-x)
y-3=.5(x-4)
y=.5x+1

At the x-intercept, y=0, so
0=.5x+1
-1=.5x
x=-2

What is 25 5/8 - 10 1/8
Delvig [45]
Subtract 25 and 10 which gives you 15
subtract 5/8 and 1/8 since they have common denominators.
You get 15 1/2 when you simplify 15 4/8 in which 4/8 is the same thing as 1/2.
