Answer:
<u>The slope is -3.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is the Rise/Run between the two points. The change in y for every change in x. Take the two points and calculate the:
RISE = (-6 - 3) = -9
RUN = (8 - 5) = 3
Rise/Run, or slope, is = -9/3 or -3
I graphed a line with slope of -3 and then added 18 to force the line to intersect the two given points.
Answer:
infinite number of solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
Work with the second equation. Subtract 8x from both sides.
- 4y + 8x - 8x = -8x - 12 Collect like terms.
-4y = - 8x - 12 Divide by - 4
-4y/-4 = - 8x/-4 - 12/-4
y = 2x + 3
That is exactly the same line as the first given. There is an infinite number of solutions.
