Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
(2,-5)...x = 2 and y = -5
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y int
-5 = -2/3(2) + b
-5 = - 4/3 + b
-5 + 4/3 = b
- 15/3 + 4/3 = b
- 11/3 = b
equation is : y = -2/3x - 11/3...but we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C
y = -2/3x - 11/3
2/3x + y = - 11/3....multiply by 3
2x + 3y = -11 <== standard form
It is -25
im practically a math genuis
To write an equation you need a slop and y intercept. To find the slop use the formula y2-y1 /x2-x1. and for the y intercept use the formula y=mx+b
Answer:
y= -1/3x+9.2
Step-by-step explanation:
I believe that it is 9.2 although it could be another number in the 9's.
The slope is (rise) -1 and (run) 3 and the line crosses the y-intercept at what it looks like 9.2
