Answer:

The x-coordinate is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope  m of the line

we have the points

(-10, 1) and (5,-5)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

substitute the values

m=\frac{-5-1}{5+10}

m=\frac{-6}{15}

Simplify

m=-\frac{2}{5}

step 2

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

m=-\frac{2}{5}

point\ (-10,1)

substitute in the equation and solve for b

1=-\frac{2}{5}(-10)+b

1=4+b

b=1-4=-3

The equation of the line is

y=-\frac{2}{5}x-3

step 3

Find the x-coordinate of another point in the line if the y-coordinate is -3

For y=-3

substitute in the equation and solve for x

-3=-\frac{2}{5}x-3

-3+3=-\frac{2}{5}x

0=-\frac{2}{5}x

x=0

The point is (0,-3) -----> the y-intercept

therefore

The x-coordinate is 0

7r-5r+8=9r+8-r translate to an equation, then solve
pshichka [43]

Answer:

r=0

Step-by-step explanation:

7r-5r+8=9r+8-r

This is already an equation

Combine like terms

2r+8 = 8r+8

Subtract 2r from each side

2r-2r +8 = 8r-2r +8

8 =6r+8

Subtract 8 from each side

8-8 = 6r+8-8

0 = 6r

Divide by 6

0/6 = 6r/6

0 =r
