Answer:

y = -1/6 x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write an equation of a line you need slope (m) and y-intercept (b) or where the graph grosses the y- axis. since you are given two points (6, 10) and (4, -2). Slope when given two points is (y - y) / (x - x)

                                                                  so (-2 - 10) / (6 - 4) = 6 / - 1 =- 6

use the equation y = mx + b and substitute either point (6, 10) or (4, -2) as a replacement for x and y respectively. (I chose (6, 10) because they are positive numbers. Substituting x = 6 and y = 10 and m = -6  into y = mx + b

10 = -6(6) + b

10 = -36 + b

b = 46 (add -36 to both sides)

so our equation: y = -6x + 46 :-)

Answer:

y = 6x - 26

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find slope: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

(-2 - 10) / (4 - 6) = -12 / -2 = 6

basic equation: y = 6x + b

2. plug in (x,y) value using one set of coordinates.

10 = 6(6) + b

10 = 36 + b

b = 10 - 36

b = -26

3. plug b in to find full equation.

y = 6x -26

Aunit cube is shown.
matrenka [14]

Answer:

A unit cube has one cubic unit of volume.

Another unit cube with the same length, width and height as the unit cube shown would have the same volume

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube is a shape formed from the combination of a square.

A cube has equal sides.

But a unit cube has equal sides and equal volume to be equal to one, i.e unity.

Matt has 11 white buttons. He has 9 fewer brown buttons than white buttons. Matt has 17 more grey buttons than brown buttons. Ho
In-s [12.5K]

Answer: 32 buttons

Step-by-step explanation:

Matt has 11 white buttons.

Matt has 9 fewer brown buttons than white buttons. This means he has (11 -9) = 2 brown buttons

Matt has 17 more grey buttons than brown buttons. This means that he has (2 + 17) = 19 grey buttons.

The total number of buttons that Matt has will be;

= 11 white + 2 brown + 19 grey

= 32 buttons
