Write the equation on the line passing through the two points (-2,11) and (5,-3)

Answer:

y = - 2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 11) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 3)

m = \frac{-3-11}{5+2} = \frac{-14}{7} = - 2, thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 2, 11), then

11 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 11 - 4 = 7

y = - 2x + 7 ← equation of line

Which is bigger 0.17 or 0.165
Bogdan [553]
0.17 is bigger because you compare the values of the number in each place. There is no whole number, the tenths place is equal. Then in the hundredths place you have a 6 and a 7. 6<7 so therefore 0.17> 0.165. To help yourself out u can add a 0 at the end to then more easily compare .170 to .165

The common point between lines y = 2x + 5 and y = ½ x + 6 is (3, 1/2). true or false
mixer [17]
The common point between y = 2x + 5 and y = (1/2)x + 6 will have the same values for x and y.

Therefore, set the two y expressions equal to obtain
2x + 5 = (1/2)x + 6

Subtract (1/2)x from each side.
(3/2)x + 5 = 6

Subtract 5 from each side.
(3/2)x = 1

Multiply each side by 2/3.
x = 2/3.

From the first equation, obtain
y = 2*(2/3) + 5 = 19/3.

The common point is (2/3, 19/3). It is not equal to (3, 1/2).
