Answer:

-4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-6 - 2)/(11 - 5) = -8/6 = -4/3

The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have B(5, 2) and C(11, -6). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{-6-2}{11-5}=\dfrac{-8}{6}=-\dfrac{8:2}{6:2}=-\dfrac{4}{3}$

<h3>Answer: A. -4/3</h3>

Answer:

$y=3x+5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where <em>m</em> is the slope and <em>b</em> is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)

Given that the slope is 3, we can plug this into y=mx+b as <em>m</em>:

$y=3x+b$

Now, to solve for <em>b</em>, simply plug in the given point:

$-7=3(-4)+b\\-7=-12+b\\b=5$

Therefore, the y-intercept is 5. Plug this back into the equation:

$y=3x+5$

I hope this helps!

Answer:

54+2x=5x-3(2+6x)

54+2x=5x-6-18x

2x-5x+18x=-6-54
