Answer:

M = -2

b = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (-8 -0)/(-1- -5)

   = (-8-0)/(-1+5)

    = -8/4

    = -2

We now want to find the y intercept

y = mx+b is the slope intercept form of the equation

y = -2x+b

Using the point (-5,0)

0 = -2(-5) +b

0 = 10+b

Subtract 10 from each side

-10 = 10-10+b

-10 =b

The y intercept is -10

y= -2x-10

Answer:

1) slope: -2

2) y-intercept: -10

Equation:

y = -2x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) slope: (-8 - 0)/(-1 - -5)

= -8/4 = -2

2) y = -2x + c

0 = -2(-5) + c

c = -10

Equation:

y = -2x - 10

Daniel [21]

Answer:

w = \frac{V}{lh}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the formula for the width by isolating w:

V = lwh

Divide each side by lh to isolate w:

\frac{V}{lh} = w
