Since the slope is (change in y)/(change in x), and a negative number over a positive number is negative (and vice versa), we want to figure that out. Therefore, we would want 2 to be bigger than the x value and 8 smaller than the y value, or the other way around. (0,9) fits the description, as well as (5, 6)
2m - 6 = 8m
2m - 6 - 2m = 8m - 2m
2m - 2m - 6 = 8m - 2m
-6 = 6m
-6/6 = 6m/6
-1 = m
-1(3) = m(3)
-3 = 3m
3m = -3
I guess 26 first question ...
Answer:
easy :) answer is 12x-8y
Step-by-step explanation:
all you do is combine like terms
1. the 10x + 2x which is 12x
2. (this part gets tricky) you have a NEGITIVE 5 minus 3 so if you are subtracting by a negitive number you add (5+3=8) and keep the negitive (-8y)
