Answer:
y=(3/8)x+5.75
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
m=slope
b=y-intercept
m=(8-5)/(6+2)=3/8
y=mx+b
5=3/8(-2)+b
5=-3/4+b
b=5.75
y=mx+b
y=(3/8)x+5.75
Answer:
5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
In short, the absolute value of a number turns that number into a positive value no matter what. Here is a small representation:
Negative -> Positive
