Answer:

the slope is -9

Step-by-step explanation:

since this a linear equation when finding a slope you can use the given points to find slope.

so the points given are (5,11) and (6,2). this number signify the position of a point in the graph. for example point(5,11) means the point is right 5, up 11.

also when graphing, (x,y) is how the points are plotted. so 5 is x and 6 is y.

to find the slope, the formula is Δy/Δx

so: Δy/Δx= 11-2/5-6 =-9

remember to subtract the y points from the x points

ps. i hope this helps

Point K is on line JL. given JL =4x, JK= 2x+3, and KL=x, determine the numerical length of kl​
balandron [24]

Hi! I'm happy to help!

Our total line is JL (4x), and it is split into two parts: JK, and KL. We have our values, and we know that JK+KL=JL, so we can substitute our values and solve for x:

4x=(2x+3)+(x)

4x=3x+3

To solve for x, we have to isolate it on one side of the equation.

First, let's subtract 3x from both sides so that we can isolate x:

4x=3x+3

-3x -3x

x=3

<u>So, our x=3, which means that KL=3.</u>

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (1,5) and (0,3)?
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

y=2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

first use the y2-y1/x2-x1 then use y=mx+b after

plug in 3 for y2 and 5 for y1

then plug in 0 for x2 and 1 for x1

\frac{3-5}{0-1}=\frac{-2}{-1} =2 and 2 is ur slope

___________________

now use y=mx+b

i usually use the first point but u can u anyone u want

plug in 1 for x

plug in 5 for y

and plug in 2 for m

5=2(1)+b

5=2+b

subtract 2 on both sides

5-2=3

3=b and b is ur y-intercept

y=2x+3

hope this helps
