Write an equation for the line containing (7,7) and (2,-3).

Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the line equation we assume that its form is y = m*x + b. Where m is the slope and b is the independent variable that intercepts the Y axis.

If we have two points as P1=(x1,y1) and P2=(x2,y2) we can use the slope formula as:

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

The points given are P1=(7,7) and P2=(2,-3), then the using the slope formula we obtain:

m = (-3-7)/(2-7)

m = (-10)/(-5)

m = 2

By now the equation is y = 2x + b. To find the value of b we have to replace in the equation any point, in this case i am using P2:

-3 = 2*(2) + b

-3 = 4 + b

-3 -4 = b

-7 = b

Therefore the equation of the line is:

y = 2x - 7

<span>The complete question includes these choices: A)1 foot B)2 feet C)5 feet D)9 feet The correct answer is B) 2 feet, approx. 24 inches; most standard desks have a height between 28'' to 30''. The answer A is too low, C and D are too much, the perfect answer would be at least 3-4 feet, but as this question proposes only these answers, the nearest estimating value is B)2 feet. </span>

Value of the y-intercept of the graph of f(x) = e1–x – 1?
frozen [14]

Answer:

(0, e-1) or (0, 1.718) to the nearest thousandth.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept occurs when x = 0 so here we have:

y = e^(1 - 0) - 1

= e - 1

So the y-intercept is the point (0, e-1)
