A(3x-8)=b-18x what is a value? what is b value?

1 answer:

5 0

We have that
<span>a*(3x-8)=b-18x
3ax-8a=18x+b
</span><span>The only way for this to happen (non-trivially) is if the coefficients of x are equal, and the constant terms are equal
</span>so
3ax=18x-----> 3a=18--------> a=6
-8a=b---------> b=-8*6-------> b=-48

the answer is
a=6
b=-48

Slope of -8,4 and 3,-4

nata0808 [166]

For this case we have that by definition, the slope of a line is given by:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}}$

Where:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1})$ and $(x_ {2}, y_ {2})$ are two points through which the line passes

According to the statement we have:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 8,4)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 3, -4)$

Substituting we have:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {-4-4} {3 - (- 8)} = \frac {-8} {3 + 8} = \frac {-8} {11} = - \frac {8} {11}$

Thus, the slope of the line is:

$m = - \frac {8} {11}$

Answer:

$m = - \frac {8} {11}$
