Answer:

The slope is -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points on a line, we can find the slope from

y = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

 = (8-9)/(5-3)

  =-1/2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slope=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\frac{8-9}{5-3}\\\\=\frac{-1}{2}\\

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line y = -1/3x+4
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 4 ← is i slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{1}{3}

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (6, 5) into the partial equation

5 = - 2 + c ⇒ c = 5 + 2 = 7

y = - \frac{1}{3} x + 7 ← equation of parallel line

An integer is three more than another integer. Twice the larger integer is two less
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

The integers are 4 and 7 or -2 and 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make a system of equations with the description of the two integers.

1. x = y + 3

2. 2x + 2 = y^2

The simplest and the fastest way to solve this system in this case is substitution. You can substitute x for y + 3 in the second equation.

1. x = y + 3

2. 2(y + 3) + 2 = y^2

Now simplify and solve the second one. For convenience, I will just disregard the first equation for now.

2y + 6 + 2 = y^2

y^2 - 2y - 8 = 0

You can factor this equation to solve for y.

(y - 4) (y + 2) = 0

y = 4, y = -2

Now we can substitute the value of y for x in the first equation.

x = 7, x = 1
