Answer:
y=-x+5
Step-by-step explanation:
(4,1)
(8,-3)
1)a slope of a line is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
so (-3-1)/(8-4)
-4/4=>m=-1
2)to find y-int replace any points in the equation by x and y
so 1=-1(4)+b
1=-4+b
1+4=b
so b= 5
therefore the equation is y=-x+5 so d
The best way to find it is to reduce each ratio you work with to its
lowest terms,and see which ones are equal. To reduce a ratio to its
lowest terms, divide each number by their greatest common factor.
First, the one that you're trying to match: <u>49:35</u> .
The greatest common factor of 49 and 35 is 7 .
Divide each number by 7 . . . <em>7:5</em> . . . <u>that's</u> what you have to match.
<u>7:4</u>
Their greatest common factor is ' 1 '.
No help at all, and this one is not it.
<u>14:25</u>
Again, their greatest common factor is '1 '.
No help at all, and this one is not it.
<u>21:15</u>
Their greatest common factor is ' 3 '.
Divide both numbers by 3 . . . <em>7:5 </em>.
That's it !
