Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the equation of a line in point slope form is expressed as

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Where

m represents the slope. The formula for determining slope is

Slope = (y2 - y1) /(x2 -;x1)

Where

y2 represents final value of y = 2

y1 represents initial value of y = 12

x2 represents final value of x = 3

x1 represents initial value of x = 1

Therefore,

Slope = (2 - 12)/(3 - 1) = - 10/2 = -5

Therefore, the point slope form would be

y - 12 = - 5(x - 1)

The equation for the slope-intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where c = intercept

To determine c, we would substitute m = - 5, x = 1 and y = 12 into y = mx + c. It becomes

12 = - 5 × 1 + c = - 5 + c

c = 12 + 5 = 17

The equation becomes

y = - 5x + 17

Answer:

The answer to your question is  a)      y - 2 = -5(x - 3)  

                                                      b)     y = -5x + 17  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (1, 12)

B (3, 2)

Process

1.- Find the slope

Formula

m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Substitution

m = \frac{2 - 12}{3 - 1} = \frac{-10}{2} = - 5

2.- Find the equation in point slope form

Equation

                             y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Substitution and equation

                           y - 2 = -5(x - 3)

3.- Find the slope-intercept form

Expand the point slope form

                           y - 2 = -5x + 15

Simplify

                           y = -5x + 15 + 2

Equation

                          y = -5x + 17

I suck at math so help me please:)
Evgen [1.6K]
Since they’re vertical we know that they’re congruent. We write the equation as 160=10x+50. Subtract 50 to both sides then we get 110=10x so now we divide 10 to both sides and get 11=x.
So your answer is A
Hope I helped :)

What is the value of b in the equation 3b + 2(b - 1) =8
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

b = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the value of b, we have to isolate b on one side of equation first

So,

3b+2(b-1)=8

Multiplying 2 with b-1

3b+2b-2=8\\5b-2=8

Adding 2 on both sides

5b-2+2=8+2\\5b=10

Dividing by 5 on both sides

\frac{5b}{5}=\frac{10}{5} \\b=2

So the value of b is 2 ..
