First you are going to divide. The. once you get your answer round to the nearest 10, 100, or whatever you have to round to
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don’t contain the variable.
K=2
Something is wrong here, the slope is off...
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(1-3)/(12--4)
m=-2/16
m=-1/8
So the point slope form should be:
y-1=(-1/8)(x-12)
The standard form of the line is ax+by=c so we need to rearrange it to reflect the this form...multiply both sides by -8 to get:
8-8y=x-12 subtract 8 from both sides
-8y=x-20 subtract x from both sides
-x-8y=-20 by convention, the coefficient of x should be positive, multiply both sides by -1
x+8y=20
....
Just to show that the equation given you is incorrect..
y-1=(x-12)/4 using the point (-4,3)
3-1=(-4-12)/4
2=-16/4
2=-4 which is obviously incorrect...(they had the wrong slope for the two points given)
I hope this helps you
