Answer:
m= 1/7
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for slope: y2- y1/ x2- x1 so,
1-2/ -2-5
= -1/ -7
= 1/7
Answer:
y=mx+b is the form to write this equation. M is the slope and B is the y intercept. therefore:
y=4x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
First subtract 12 from both sides, then subtract 2x from both sides, multiply both sides by -1, then divide by 4.
x > 3.5
5x + 2y = 7....multiply by -3
-2x + 6y = 9
----------------
-15x - 6y = -21 (result of multiplying by -3)
-2x + 6y = 9
---------------add
-17x = - 12
x = 12/17 or 0.7
5x + 2y = 7
5(12/17) + 2y = 7
60/17 + 2y = 7
2y = 7 - 60/17
2y = 119/17 - 60/17
2y = 59/17
y = 59/17 * 1/2
y = 59/34 or 1.7 when rounded <====
