It's a degree, however in algebra there are also radians and gradians
Equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = -1/5 x + 9
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given slope of the line is -1/5 and the point is (-10, 9). Here m=-1/5.
⇒ y = -1/5 x + b ------ (1)
- Step 2: Find the y-intercept of the line, b. Since the line passes through (-10, 9) substitute x = -10 and y = 9 in eq(1)
⇒ 9 = -1/5 × -10 + b = 2 + b
⇒ b = 9 - 2 = 7
- Step 3: Slope intercept form of the line is y = mx + b. Form the equation using the values of m and b.
⇒ y = -1/5 x + 7
It can also be written as 5y + x = 35
4x+3y=7
3x-2y=9
12x+9y=21
12x-8y=36
^^Multiply top equation by 3 and multiply bottom equation by 4
12x+9y=36
- 12x-8y=36
17y=-15
^^Then subtract those two new equations
17y/17= -15/17
Y= -0.88
^^Next divide both sides by 17
4x+3* -0.88=7
4x + (-2.64) =7
-(-2.64) -(-2.64)
4x = 9.64
4x/4=9.64/4
X=2.41
^^then choose on equation and put your new y in the y spot and solve.
X=2.41
Y=-0.88
Your point/coordinate is (2.41,-.88)
