A line includes the points (-3, 8)and (-1, 2). What is its equation in slope- intercept form

1 answer:

5 0

Solve for slope first:
m = $\frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$

m = $\frac{2-8}{-1-(-3)}$ = -3

then solve for b in y = mx + b

8 = -3(-3) + b
b = -1

y = -3x - 1

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Their trip is 50 mile long.

Step-by-step explanation:

I first divided 70 by 35 to get two.The two represents 1 mile = 2%. So then I subtracted 70 from 100 to get 30 then I divided 30 by 2 to get 15. Then I added 15 to the original 35 to get 50 miles for their 100%/destination of their trip. Hope this helps! Have a great day!
