<u>y = 3x - 2</u>
-- The ' 3 ' is the slope. If you double it to ' 6 ', the line is steeper.
-- The ' -2 ' is the y-intercept. If you double it to ' -4 ', the line crosses the y-axis lower.
Choice <u>(a)</u> says that . . . "... steeper, and lower y-intercept".
Answer:
C) The scale factor is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The side length of the bigger pentagon is 2 times bigger than the smaller one, so C is correct.
Given:
The slope of the line is -3.
The line passes through the point (2,-2).
To find:
The point-slope form of the line.
Solution:
Point slope form: If a line passes through the point
with slope m, then the point-slope form of the line is:

The slope of the line is -3 and it passes through the point (2,-2). So, the point-slope form of the line is:


Therefore, the required point slope form of the given line is
.
