Answer:
y=-2x+5. (4,-3)
Step-by-step explanation:
1) What's being asked in other words is to write a function. So the initial point is (1,3). In x-axis, a translation movement can only be to the right or to the left. Similarly for y-axis the possible movements are shifting up or down. The question says, 3 units right for x-cordinate and 6 units down for y cordinate. So the final point of this translation would be (1+3,3-6) =(4,-3)
2) To write a linear function we need to find out the slope:
y=-2x+5
<u>Proof:</u>
x=1
y=-2(1)+5
y=3 Then (1,3)
x=4
y=-2(4)+5
y=-8+5
y=-3 Then (4,-3)
The slope of the line that passes through (5, 4) and (-4,3) is
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, two points are (5, 4) and (-4, 3)
We have to find the slope of a line that passes through the above given two points.
Slope of a line that pass through is given as:
Hence, the slope the line that passes through the given points is
