Answer:

y = 1/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the equation of a line with two points

Step1: find the slope

m = (y_2 - y_1)/(x_2 - x_1)

( 0 , -2) (6 , 0)

x_1 = 0

y_1 = -2

x_2 = 6

y_2 = 0

Insert the values

m = ( 0 - (-2)/ (6 - 0)

m = ( 0 + 2)/(6 - 0)

m = 2/6

m = (2/2)/(6/2)

m = 1/3

Step 2 : substitute m into the equation of line

y = mx + c

y = intercept y

m = slope

x = intercept x

c = intercept

y = 1/3x + c

Step 3: sub any of the two points

Let's pick ( 6 ,0)

x = 6

y = 0

Insert the values into

y = 1/3x + c

0 = 1/3(6) + c

0 = 1*6/3 + c

0 = 6/3 + c

0 = 2 + c

c = 0 - 2

c = -2

Sub c = -2

y = 1/3x - 2

The equation of the line is

y = 1/3x - 2

7(5x - 13) = 14
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Part A, one solution

Part B, x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

divide both sides of the equation by 7 (5x-13=2)

move the constant to the right hand side and change its sign (5x=2+13)

add numbers (5x=15)

divide both sides of the equation by 5  (x=3)

hope this helps, have a good day
