The line passing through (3, -1) and (-1, 5) has this slope:
5+1
m = ---------- = -3/2
-1-3
We need to find the y-intercept. To do this, substitute the knowns (-3/2 for m, -1 for y and 3 for x) into the slope-intercept equation:
-1 = (-3/2)(3) + b. Then: -1 = -9/2 + b, and so b = 9/2 - 1 = 7/2.
The desired equation is y = (-3/2)x + 7/2.
Answer:
13/4
Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to use is pemdas and keep y by itself

Answer:
a = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The cube root (radical) is equivalent to x^(1/3). When that is divided by x^(1/3), the result is ...
(x^(1/3))/(x^(1/3)) = x^(1/3 -1/3) = x^0
Comparing that to x^a, we find a=0.

The applicable rules of exponents are ...
![\sqrt[n]{x^m}=x^{\frac{m}{n}}\\\\\dfrac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Em%7D%3Dx%5E%7B%5Cfrac%7Bm%7D%7Bn%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5Cdfrac%7Bx%5Ea%7D%7Bx%5Eb%7D%3Dx%5E%7Ba-b%7D)
