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

Consider the equation y= -2x -3.
Alona [7]

Part A

The graph is shown below as an attached image.

The diagram shows a straight line that goes through the two points (0,-3) and (1, -5)

I'm using GeoGebra to graph the line.

side note: (0, -3) is the y intercept which is where the graph crosses the y axis.

==================================================

Part B

Answer is choice 2

The graph can be written in the form y = mx+b, so it is linear

In this case, m = -2 is the slope and b = -3 is the y intercept

We can write the slope as m = -2 = -2/1. This tells us that we can move down 2 units and then over to the right 1 units to get from point to point. This process of "down 2, over to the right 1" happens when moving from point A to point B in the diagram below.
