Put the first equation in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b. Start by subtracting y from both sides.

2x - y = -10, subtract 2x from both sides.

-y = -10 - 2x

Divide both sides by negative one.

y = 10 + 2x

To find the slope when the equations are in slope-intercept form you look at the coefficient of x. The first equation has the slope of 2 (which we just found), and the second equation has the slope of -2.

Parallel lines have the same slope and perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes. Since 2 and -2 are neither of these, your answer is neither.

Which equation has a graph that goes through the points (4, -6) and (0, 6)?

Ugo [173]

Answer:

$y = -3x + 6\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the gradient of the equation

$\frac{Difference in y}{Difference in x} \\\\\frac{6 - - 6}{0 - 4} = \frac{12}{-4} = -3$

The equation will have the gradient -3x

Use the general equation of a line, and substitute the coordinates in to find the y-intercept.

$y = x + c\\ y = -3x + c\\$

(4, -6)

$-6 = -3(4) + c\\ -6 = -12 + c\\ -6 + 12 = c\\ c = 6$ $6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = 0 + c\\ c = 6$

(0, 6)

$6 = -3(0) + c\\ 6 = -0 + c\\ c = 6$

The equation of the line is

$y = -3x + 6\\$

Jeremy and Randell are brothers and each are trying to raise money for summer camp.
To help Jeremy raise money, his parents told him he could wash each of their cars once a week for $20.00 each. He has already earned $640.00. The football camp that he wants to attend costs $1,469.00.
To help Randell raise money, his parents told him he could mow the grass for them and both sets of grandparents once every 2 weeks and earn $28.00 for each lawn he mows. He has already earned $728.00. The lacrosse camp that he wants to attend costs $1,701.00.
If Jeremy and Randell each earn enough money to attend the camps of their choice, then from this point on (randell) needs to complete (idk what would got here) more chores than(jeremy)

is it asking you to fill in the blanks with their names if so i think it would be this.
