Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll use the standard equation y=mx+b to solve this problem. m is the slope of the line and b is the y intercept.

We know the slope, but we have to solve for the y intercept. To do this (I mean solve for 'b'), we need to know the slope, x value, and y value. We know the slope (-2/3), x= -3, and y=8. Let's plug this into y=mx+b and solve for b.

y=mx+b\\8=-\frac{2}{3}*-3 +b\\8=2+b\\b=8-2\\b=6

Let's plug all of this back into the first equation y=mx+b.

y=mx+b\\y=-\frac{2}{3}x+6

That's the answer to this problem.

I hope this helps.

Find the midpoint of the line segment with the endpoints A and B.
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

<h2>( 6 , 7 )</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint M of two endpoints of a line segment can be found by using the formula

M = (  \frac{x1 + x2}{2} , \:  \frac{y1 + y2}{2} )\\

From the question we have

m = ( \frac{2 + 10}{2} \:  , \:  \frac{6 + 8}{2} ) \\  =  (\frac{12}{2}  \: , \:  \frac{14}{2} ) \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:

We have the final answer as

<h3>( 6 , 7 )</h3>

Hope this helps you

Solve the one-variable equation using the distributive property and properties of equality.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

a=6

Step-by-step explanation:

-6(2+(6)=-48

-6(2+6)=-48

(-6X2)+(-6+6)=-48

(-12)+(-36)=-48

-48=-48

They are equal. Tell me if I made a mistake. Thanks!
