Answer:
<u>The answer is m = 5</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve the proportional equation, this way:
3/m-2 = 7/m+2
3 * (m + 2) = 7 * (m - 2) [Lowest common denominator (m + 2) * (m - 2)]
3m + 6 = 7m - 14
-4m = -14 - 6 (Like terms)
-4m = -20
m = -20/-4
m = 5
It is y = -4/5x - 2 because you go left 4 and down 5 which makes both negative. And of course it is minus two.
