Answer:
slope: -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete y2 - y1 over x2 - x1 with your given points.
-3 - (-1) = -2
_____ ___
2 - 0 = 2
= ⁻²⁄₂ = -1 Simplify to lowest term
Pedro had 1487 hits
Ricky had 1202 hits
2688/2=1344.5
285/2=142.5
1344.5-142.5=1202 (Ricky)
1344.5+142.5=1487 (Pedro)
1487-1202=285
1487+1202=2689
Answer:
2x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
Just solve this way.
(2/3)x-(1/3)=(1/3)y.
Now find y in terms of x.
We have no idea how 'x' responds to changes in 'y'.
We don't even know their units, to make a guess with.
-- If 'x' and 'y' are the ages of two people, then when y = 30, 'x' will be 23.
-- If they are the frequency and wavelength of a wave on the lake,
then when y = 30, 'x' will be 2 .
-- If 'x' is the weight of a rock in your front yard and 'y' is the number of pages
in today's newspaper, then 'y' has no effect on 'x'. No matter what happens
to 'y' . . . 'x' will always be 5 .
With the information given in the question, we just don't know.
We need either an equation, or else one more example.
