Graph the line passing through (−2,5) whose slope is m=1/5

Answer:

In order to graph the line, you need to first find the y-intercept (aka 'b').

Equation: y=mx+b

Given the two points and slope, we can plug in and find for b

5 = 1/5(-2) + b

5 = -2/5 + b

b = 5 + 2/5

b = 27/5 or 5.4

So your final equation will be: y=1/5x+27/5

Lastly you just need to plot the 'b = 5.4'  on the y-axis and place the slope as 1 over 5.

Hello there! :)

Given:

x-coordinate of point = -2

y-coordinate of point = 5

Slope, or "m" = 1/5

Substitute in these values into slope-intercept formula (y = mx+b)

5 = 1/5(-2) + b

5 = -2/5 + b

25/5 = -2/5 + b

27/5 = b

Rewrite the equation:

y = 1/5x + 27/5

Graph the equation using a graphing utility:

A line passes through the points (–3, –4) and (6, 2). What number is the x-intercept?
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

<h2>D. 3</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\bold{METHOD\ 1}

\text{The formula of a slope:}\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\\\\text{x-intercept:}\ (x,\ 0).\\\\\text{Susbtitute the coordinates of the points to the formula of a slope}\\\\(-3,\ -4),\ (6,\ 2),\ (x,\ 0):\\\\m=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{6-(-3)}=\dfrac{2+4}{6+3}=\dfrac{6}{9}=\dfrac{6:3}{9:3}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\m=\dfrac{0-2}{x-6}=\dfrac{-2}{x-6}\\\\\text{Therefore we have the equation:}\\\\\dfrac{-2}{x-6}=\dfrac{2}{3}\qquad\text{cross multiply}\\\\2(x-6)=(-2)(3)\\\\2(x-6)=-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\x-6=-3\qquad\text{add 6 to both sides}\\\\x=3

\bold{METHOD\ 2}\\\\\text{Look at the picture.}

Mark points in the coordinate system.

Lead a line through these points.

I am not sure if i did this right she wants us to distribute and get only one x on one side and find the answer.
umka21 [38]


I got x=18


3(x-4)-2(3x+4)=4(3-x)+5x+4

3x-12-6x-8=12-4x+5x+4

3x-20=16+x

2x=36x

x=18
