Slope = change in y over change in x:

Slope = (-6 6) / 2- -6) = -3/2

Equation of a line is y = Mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

Y = -3/2x + b

Replace y and x with one of the given points and solve for b:

6 = -3/2(-6) + b

6 = -9 + b

B = -9 + 6

B = -3

The equation of the line is y = -3/2x-3

An average person's heart beats about 103,630 times a day. Write and solve an equation to find about how many times the average

scZoUnD [109]

If an average persons heart beats at 103,630 times a day, and a day equals 24 hours, along with the fact that a minute consists of 60 minutes our equations can be:

103,630/(24*60)

To solve the equation we would first start with 24*60 which equals 1440. Then divide 103,630 by that number. Which would equal 71 time per minute.
