<em>Comment on "cross multiply"</em>
Like a lot of instructions in Algebra courses, the idea of "cross multiply" describes <em>what the result looks like</em>. It doesn't adequately describe how you get there. The <em>one and only rule</em> in solving Algebra problems is "<em>whatever is done to one side of the equation must also be done to the other side of the equation</em>." If you multiply one side by one thing and the other side by a different thing, you are violating this rule.
What looks like "cross multiply" is really "<em>multiply by the product of the denominators</em> and cancel like terms from numerator and denominator." Here's what that looks like with the intermediate steps added.
Answer:
Equation 1,
Equation 2,
Take equation number 2.
Substitute 'x' in Equation number 1.
<u>y = 0.</u>

The answer is -1.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to apply gradient formula :
So you will have to substitute the coordinates into the equation. Let (x1,y1) be (-3,4) and (x2,y2) be (5,-4) :
