(0, 36) would be the point on the y axis, so 36 is the y-intercept, or the b value in the equation, y = mx + b.
(12,0) is the x-intercept, so we know the line has a negative slope.
The equation for these points would be:
y = -3x + 36
LETTER B
Well, I would first make a table and then I would find the slope. That is my advice.
Answer:
k is 2/3 and y is -1/3 when x is -0.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The direct variation relationship is y = kx, where k is the const. of var.
Subbing 3 for x and 2 for y, 2 = 3k, or k = 2/3.
Now, if x = -0.5, y = (2/3)(-1/2) = -1/3
k is 2/3 and y is -1/3 when x is -0.5.
