Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As x increases from -74 to -54 (a 'run' of 20), y decreases from 18 to 12 (a 'rise' of -6.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise/run = -6/20 = -13/10.

From y = mx + b we get     12 = (-13/10)(12) + b, or (after dividing all terms by 12)

1 = -13/10 + b/12, or

60 = -3(6) + 5b, or

42 = - 5b, or b = -42/5

The line is y = (-13/10)x - 42/5.

At the x-intercept, y = 0.  Setting y = 0, we get:

(13/10)X = -42/5,  or  13x = -84.

Thus, x = -84/13 =  -6.46

and so the x-intercept of the line is (-6.46, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=2t+5

2t+5 +-5= y +-5

2t=y-5 2t/2=y-5/2

t=1/2y+-5/2

= t=1/2y + -5/2
