Mathematics

Answer: -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope - intercept form is given as :

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y - intercept.

Equation given :

y - 9 = -2(x-8)

⇒ y - 9 = -2x + 16

add 9 to both sides , we have

y = -2x + 16 + 9

y = -2x + 25

comparing with :

y = mx + c

slope = -2

Which equations represent the line that’s passes through points (1,-5) and (3,-17)
Nutka1998 [239]

(1,-5)(3,-17)

slope = (-17 - (-5) / (3 - 1) = - 12/2 = - 6


y = mx + b

slope(m) = -6

use either of ur points...(1,-5)...x = 1 and y = -5

now we sub and find b, the y int

-5 = -6(1) + b

-5 = -6 + b

-5 + 6 = b

1 = b

so ur equation is : y = -6x + 1....or 6x + y = 1

Hope this helps!
