Which ordered pair describes the location of point P?

1 answer:

6 0

Coordinates are written (x,y). So find P on the graph. Start at the origin, (0,0), and go left 2 units, sp you're right under P. Since you went left, it's negative, x=-2. Then just go up until you get to P, y=3. So you end up with P is at (-2,3). Hope this helps!

what is an equation of the line that is parallel to y equals negative 4x - 5 and passes through the point -2, 6

Bond [772]

y = - 4x - 2

the equation of a line in slope-intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

y = - 4x - 5 is in this form

with slope m = - 4

• Parallel lines have equal slopes

y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 6 ) into the partial equation

6 = 8 + c ⇒ c = 6 - 8 = - 2
