Answer:
One equation would be y= -1.5x +11
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's a table to show the coordinates
x: y:
8 -1
-------------------
-4 17
the x coor. 8 goes down by 12 to get to the next x coor. -4.
8-12= -4
the y coor. -1 goes up by 18 to get to the next y coor. 17.
-1+18= 17
therefore 18/-12 is -1.5 which can be your k in y=kx+b.
Check your answer.
-1.5*8= -12 but when you add 11, you get the y coor. -1
Do the same with the other x coor.
-4*-1.5= 6 + 11 =17
11 can be your b in the slope-intercept form equation.
One equation may be y = -1.5x +11
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = rise/run =[y2-y1]/[x2-x1]
1) slope = [90 - 30] / [12 - 4] = 60 / 8 = 15/2
2) slope = [75 - 30] / [10 - 4] = 45 / 6 = 15 / 2
The slopps are equal.
-18 because a negative number times positive is negative.
