Slope intercepf is y=mx+b wherem=slope and b= y intercept
slope is found by doing
(y1-y2)/(x1-x2)
points are (6,-1) and (-3,2)
(x,y)
x1=6
y1=-1
x2=-3
y2=2
subsitute
(-1-2)/(6-(-2))=-3/(6+2)=-3/8
slope=-3/8
subsitute
y=-3/8x+b
subsitute and solve for b
(-3,2)
x=-3
y=2
2=-3/8(-3)+b
2=9/8+b
2=16/8
subtract 9/8 from both sides
16/8-9/8=b
7/8=b
y=-3/9x+7/8 is the equation
Answer:
2x+y = 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for a line is y = mx+b where m is the lope and b is the y intercept
y = -2x+b
substitute the point into x and y
8 = -2(6) +b
8 = -12+b
Add 12 to each side
20 =b
y = -2x+20
Add 2x to each side
2x+y = 20
Answer:
The answer is 'C' "The slope of line BC is equal to the slope of line segment DE"
Step-by-step explanation:
This is correct. I checked my answer for this about 3 times. If this isn't correct then my next bet is answer 'D'
