answer: y = 1.5x - 5.5
explanation:
use y = mx +b to model your equation
(m = slope, b = y-intercept)
let's start by finding slope
to find slope, subtract the y values over the x values.
- 4 - (-1) / - 5 - (-3)
solve and simplify.
-3 / -2
two negatives equals a positive, so convert into a decimal and remove the negative
you get 1.5.
now, plug the slope a y and x value into the equation to find b, the missing value.
-1 = 1.5(3) + b
-1 = 4.5 + b
-5.5= b
so, your equation is y = 1.5x - 5.5.
Julio:22 Charel's:22
julio will at least be 66
and Charel's will at least be 55 I'm not positive bu hopefully it helps
X= -2 and y = -6. Here is the work
Can you show a clearer picture ??
