(5,2)(-3,5)
slope = (5 - 2) / (-3 - 5) = -3/8
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -3/8
use either of ur points...(5,2)...x = 5 and y = 2
now we sub and find b, the y int
2 = -3/8(5) + b
2 = - 15/8 + b
2 + 15/8 = b
16/8 + 15/8 = b
31/8 = b
so ur equation is : y = -3/8x + 31/8....or 3x + 8y = 31
The exception is if you are 60 days<span> late often which will certainly hurt your scores. Otherwise, one late payment should not cause long term damage. </span>90 days<span>late: This record will damage your credit scores significantly for up to </span>seven years<span>.</span>
You multiply fractions simply by multiplying numerators and denominators with each other:
One hundred more than 792 = 792 + 100
792 + 100 = 892
892 is your answer
hope this helps
