Answer:

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 9, 6)

m = \frac{6-2}{-9-3} = \frac{4}{-12} = - \frac{1}{3}, hence

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 9, 6), then

6 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 3 = 3

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 3 ← in slope- intercept form

sveta [45]

All of them are, except ' π ' (pi) ... which gives you an idea of why
that one is usually written as a symbol and not as digits.

Here's a useful factoid regarding the other numbers on the list:
-- <em>ANY</em> number that you can write down on paper, <u>completely</u>,
using digits, is a rational number.
