The answer should be (C):y=(-3/7)x+3 because:
if you use the slope formula: (Y2-Y1)/(X2-X1) it would look like this:
(0-3)/(7-0) and the slope of the line would be -3/7
then using the slope you just found, plug it into the y=mx+b equation along with one set of coordinates to find b (the y-intercept):
y=mx+b
0=(-3/7)(7)+b
b=3
SO, overall if you put the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) that you found together, you get the line formula of y=(-3/7)+3
Decimal form: -2.6666..
Fraction form: -2 2/3
both towns are the same length because they are the same distance away from each other.
7/10. Because 0.7 equals 70% . As a fraction it would be 70/100. Simplify, and you get 7/10.
X + 9 = 2x - 3
<u>-x -x </u>
9 = x - 3
<u> +3 +3</u>
12 = x
