The formula of a slope:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have the points (-4, 2) and (-2, 2). Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{2-2}{-2-(-4)}=\dfrac{0}{-2+4}=0$

<h3>Answer: The slope is equal 0 (it's a horizontal line y = 2).</h3>

Option B:

The equation of the line given is $y=\frac{1}{3} x+2$ .

Solution:

Take any two points on the line of the graph.

Let the points be (0, 2) and (3, 3).

Slope of the line:

$$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$$m=\frac{3-2}{3-0}$

$$m=\frac{1}{3}$

Using point-slope formula,

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$$y-2=\frac{1}{3} (x-0)$

$$y-2=\frac{1}{3} x-0$

Add 2 on both sides of the equation.

$$y=\frac{1}{3} x+2$

The equation of the line given is $y=\frac{1}{3} x+2$ .

Hence Option B is the correct answer.

Can some help me fast!

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

5x +2y =38

5(6) +2y = 38

30 +2y= 38

2y= 8

y= 4

(6, 4)

5(0) +2y =38

2y= 38

y= 19

(0,19)

5(-2) +2y= 38

-10 +2y =38

2y= 48

y=24

(-2,24)

Brianna has saved $32. 1/4 of the $ she earned from babysitting. How much $ did she earn babysitting?

zalisa [80]

If $32 dollars is 1/4 of the money she made babysitting then you would add 32 four times to reach the answer.

Answer - $128 is what she made babysitting.
