first you find the slope by making using the quation for slope

(7-3)/(0-5) and you find your slope is 4/-5. Then you can plug this into point slope form using on of the coordinates so:

y-y1=m(x-x1) --> y-3=-4/5(x-5)

then you distribute the -1 so -----> y-3=-4/5x+4 and then move the 3 over

so the answer is y= -4/5x+7

To solve this problem, we must remember that the formula for slope, represented by the variable m, is m = y2-y1/x2-x1, and slope-intercept form is y=mx + b, where the variable m again represents the slope and the variable b represents the y-intercept. First, we will solve for the slope by plugging in the values we are given in our ordered pairs into the formula and simplifying using subtracting and then division:

m = y2-y1/x2-x1 = (7-3)/(0-5) = 4/-5 = -4/5

The y-intercept is found where the x value is equal to 0, which is given to us in the point (0,7). This means that b = 7 because the variable b represents the y-intercept.

Now, we can substitute in these values into slope-intercept form to create our equation.

y = mx + b

y = -4/5x + 7

Therefore, your answer is y = -4/5x + 7.

Hope this helps!

What is the 4th term of the linear sequence below?<br> -9,-5, -1,3,7,...
Anton [14]

Answer:

The 4th term of the linear sequence = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First term, a = -9

Common difference, d = -5 - (-9)

= -5 + 9

= 4

d = 4

The 4th term of the linear sequence = a + (n - 1)d

where,

n = 4

a + (n - 1)d

= -9 + (4 - 1)4

= -9 + (3)4

= -9 + 12

= 3

The 4th term of the linear sequence = 3

How do u find slope on the graph
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

you get 2 coordinates x one, y one, x two, and y two and then do rise over run which is y two - y one over x two - x one say x one is 4 and y one is 7 and x two is 8 and y two is 13 you say 13-7=6 and 8-4=4 so it is 6/4 hope that makes sense
