a. 4/5 because
the equation to find slope is
y2-y1 divided by x2-x1
which is -5-(-1) divided by -2-3 which is -4/-5 which is 4/5.
X=25 ...... ................
Answer:
Here is how you do it step by step.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify each side, if needed.
Step 2: Use Add./Sub. Properties to move the variable term to one side and all other terms to the other side.
Step 3: Use Mult./Divide
Step 4: Check your answer.
I find this is the quickest and easiest way to approach linear equations.
Example 6: Solve for the variable.
<u>Hope this helps!</u>
If m(slope)=3, you can start to set up the equation as y=3x+b.
Using y=3x+8, you can plug in the given point being (8,5).
y=5
x=8
5=(3*8)+b
5=24+b
b=-19
The equation would be y=3x-19
