Write the equation of the line that passes through (3, 4) and (2, −1) in slope-intercept form.

1 answer:

3 0

(3,4)(2,-1)
slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
slope(m) = (-1-4) / (2 - 3) = -5/-1 = 5

y = mx + b
slope(m) = 5
u can use either of ur points...(3,4)...x = 3 and y = 4
now we sub and find b, the y int
4 = 5(3) + b
4 = 15 + b
4 - 15 = b
- 11 = b

so ur equation is : y = 5x - 11 <===

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$a) \dfrac{3x}{2}-5=4$

Add 5 to both sides

$\dfrac{3x}{2}-5 +5 = 4 + 5\\\\\dfrac{3x}{2} = 9 \\\\Now \ multiply \ both \ sides \ by \ 2 \\\\\dfrac{3x}{2}*2 = 9*2\\\\3x = 18\\Now \ divide \ both \ sides \ by \ 3\\\\x =\dfrac{18}{3}\\\\$

x = 6

$b) \dfrac{x-3}{5} + 1 = -2\\\\\\Subtract \ 1 \ from \ both \ sides\\\\\dfrac{x-3}{5} = -2 -1\\\\\dfrac{x-3}{5} = -3\\\\Multiply \ both \ side \ by \ 5\\\\x - 3 = -3*5\\\\x -3 = -15\\\\$

Add 3 to both sides

x = -15 +3

x = -12

How does drawing a rectangle support the idea of composing a larger unit from smaller units

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

When you think rectangles, you think areas. Small areas aggregate to form bigger ones.

If you drew a rectangle, it's easy to divide it into smaller units by simply taking a line through its midsection from one length to the other and one width to the other. One can either form smaller squares or rectangles from a larger one.

When that is one, you'd have taken the larger area of a rectangle which is simply the product of the value of its length and it's the breadth, and divided it into smaller units.

Cheers!
