Answer:
Given points (-8, -4) and (4,5)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of the line is given by
y - y1 = ((y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)) (x-x1)
y + 4 =( 5+4)/ (4+8) ( x +8 )
y + 4 = 9/12 (x+ 8 )
y + 4 = 3/4 (x + 8)
4( y + 4 ) = 3(x + 8)
4y + 16 = 3x + 24
3x + 24 - 4y - 16 = 0
3x - 4y +8 = 0
Which is the required equation
The slope is 3/4
so
<em>y=3/4x+2</em>
P=14
Since P depends on two variables x and y as the sum of the two, then;
P = 3+ 11
P = 14
x=6
