That's like asking "What's the dollar amount of one half ?"
"Half" is not an amount. It's half of some amount that's been
previously described.
8.15% isn't an amount of anything.
It's 0.0815 of some amount that's already been described.
Answer is a step by step so you divide
Answer:
slope: -(9/8)
y-intercept: 7
equation: y = -(9/8)x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for the slope.
<em>m</em> (slope) = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)
Let:
(x₁ , y₁) = (8 , -2)
(x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 7)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
<em>m </em>= (7 - (-2))/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = (7 + 2)/(0 - 8)
<em>m</em> = 9/-8
Your slope is -(9/8)
Solve for the y-intercept. Plug in your slope into the slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
Let:
(x , y) = (0 , 7) & m = -(9/8)
Plug in the corresponding numbers to the corresponding variables:
7 = -(9/8)(0) + b
Simplify:
7 = (-9/8 * 0) + b
7 = (0) + b
b = 7
Your y-intercept is 7.
