No, the dots make no straight lines
Answer:
a = jd
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to solve for a given that a/d = j
To do so we want to isolate a (get a by itself )
We can do this by using inverse operations.
We would want to get rid of the d
A is being divided by d.
The inverse of division is multiplication so to get rid of the d we multiply a/d by d but whatever we do to one side we must do to the other so we multiply both sides by d
a/d * d = a
j * d = jd
we are then left with a = jd
And we are done!
The line can be written in the form y=mx+b. Plugging -2 in for m , 1 in for x, and -3 in for y, we get -3=-2*1+b=-2+b. Adding 2 to both sides, we get b=-1 and our equation turns into y=-2x-1 since y and x stay variables. Plugging it into a graphing calculator, we get in (0,b) that b = -1
