You are given
two points, (-1, 10) and (5, 8). You are required to find the equation in slope
intercept form given the points. The equation of a slope intercept form is y =
mx + b. Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. By definition, slope, m,
is the rise over run or the difference of y over the difference of x.
m =
y2-y1/x2-x1
Let us denote
y2=8, y1=10, x2=5 and x1=-1 and we get
m =
8-10/5-(-1)
<span><u>m = -1/3</u>,
a negative slope means it is rising to the left of the graph.</span>
Since the
slope passes the two points, it also passes the y-intercept. Choose one of the
points, (-1, 10) and substitute it to y = mx + b.
y = mx + b
10 =
(-1/3)(-1) + b
<u>b = 29/3</u>
<u>The
equation now is y = -1/3x + 29/3.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:
plssss give me brainkest
The numerator of this function given may be factored out as follows,
x² - 2x - 15 = (x - 5)(x + 3)
Given that the expression x - 5 appears in both the numerator and the denominator, we can cancel them and the new function becomes,
f(x) = x + 3
which is continuous at 5.
