I worked the problem by hand. First I used the equation y=mx+b to find the rule for the function. To find m which is the same as the slope you use the change in y divided by the change in x. Or the change in output divided by the change in input. The two points or coordinates used were (-2,-4) and (1,-1). Once you have the slope you use y=mx+b and substitude y by any value of y (-4 or -1) and m is the slope calculated and x would be the corresponding x to the y value used (if -4 was chosen for y then -2 would be used for x). This will be used to calculate b.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I think both are the same because you have equations in the formula and what ever you do on one side you do to the other.
The slope is -1.

Hope it helps
Good luck on your assignment
0.7t^9 I just took the test and that is the right ansswer
A)The y-intercept is 50 because when X=0, y=50. This shows that the car was moving at 50 mph as an initial speed.
B) in two hours (from 1 to 3) the speed increased by 4 miles per 2hours. (from 52 to 56). 4/2 = 2 mph, which is the average rate of change. This represents the amount of speed increased each hour.
C) y=2x+50, and y=60 in this case, so 60=2x+50
60=2x+50
-50 -50
-----------------
10=2x
5=x, so the domain is X<=5 (less than or equal to 5)
