Hell ya this question sucks its interest is 14% mark me brainlyiest
The line passing through (3, -1) and (-1, 5) has this slope:
5+1
m = ---------- = -3/2
-1-3
We need to find the y-intercept. To do this, substitute the knowns (-3/2 for m, -1 for y and 3 for x) into the slope-intercept equation:
-1 = (-3/2)(3) + b. Then: -1 = -9/2 + b, and so b = 9/2 - 1 = 7/2.
The desired equation is y = (-3/2)x + 7/2.
The answer is B.
The attached file is how I got the answer.
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
Terms must have the same variable (letter) and the same exponent (little number)
(7x² +3y+ 5) +(9x²+11y- 2)
Opening bracket
7x²+3y+5+9x²+11y-2
keeping like terms together
7x²+9x²+3y+11y+5-2
Since terms having same variable and exponent can be subtracted, added,divided and multiplied
So
Solving like terms we get
<u>16x²+14y+3</u> which is a correct answer.
