Answer:
<em>y = -3x+4</em>
<em />
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form of a line is given by y = mx + b
Where
m is the slope
b is the y intercept.
To find m, we need to take any arbitrary 2 points and see how many units up/down and how many units right/left we need to go from one to another. <em>Basically change in y by change in x.</em>
<em />
Let's take 2 arbitrary points: (0,4) & (2,-2)
So we need to go -6 units from y = 4 to y = -2. We need to go 2 units from x = 0 to x = 2.
Hence slope is change in y by change in x, which is -6/2 = -3
b is the y-interceept, the place where it cuts the y axis. Looking at the graph, it is at y = 4
<em>Now we can write the equation as :</em>
<em>y = -3x+4</em>
Y=kx is the direct variation equation
First plug in the x, y values given to find K
18=k(5)
18/5=k
3.6 = k
Use the k and write a new equation.
y=3.6x
Plug in the x value to solve for y.
y = 3.6(11)
y= 39.6
X intercept- 3.5
y intercept- 2.5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
10h+15=65 subtract 15 from each side
10h=50, divide each side by 10
h=5
