What is the equation of the line?​

Mathematics
1 answer:
kompoz [17]3 years ago
8 0

A line has an equation of a form,

y=ax+b

From a graph we can pick two points on the line, say A and B where,

A(x_1,y_2),B(x_2,y_2)\longrightarrow A(0,0),B(1,-1)

Using their coordinates we are able to calculate slope.

a=\dfrac{\Delta{y}}{\Delta{x}}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{-1-0}{1-0}=-1

Hence,

y=-1\cdot x+b

The x and y terms can be replaced with coordinates of one point either A or B. I'll pick A.

0=-1\cdot0+b

And now solve for b.

0=0+b\Longrightarrow b=0

Hence,

y=-1\cdot x+0

Simply,

\boxed{y=-x}

Hope this helps.

Hey,
I could actually answer the question now, so I am going to put it here as well so the people don't have to read the comments above.

<span>Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the hypotenuse:<span>a² + b² = c²
5² + 5² = c²
25 + 25 = c²
50 = c²
√50=√(c^2 )
7.07 = c

Answer: 7

Cheers,
Izzy</span></span>

On your pattern, what would y be when x = 132
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression is  (9-7*3+4)^2

We can follow the rule of "PEMDAS" here.

PEMDAS = Parenthesis, Exponents, Multiply, Divide, Add, Subtract

So, we first need to deal with Parenthesis. Next,

There aren't any exponents, so we deal with Multiplication of 7 and 3.

Then addition/subtraction.

Hence, the first step, from the answer choices, would be D, multiply 7 and 3
