Answer: 11x + 11
Step-by-step explanation:
This is two points equation. It could be done in various ways depending on the level of understanding of the topics. The formula goes thus
y - y₁ y₂ ₋ y₁ y₂ ₋ y₁
------ = ---------- or y ₋ y₁ = --------- ˣ ( x - x₁ )
x - x₁ x₂ ₋ x₁ x₂ ₋ x₁
Where x₁ = -1, x₂ = -1, y₁ = 6, y₂ = -5. Now substitute for the values in the formula above and solve.
y - 6 -5 - 6 -11 -11
------ = -------- = ---- = -----
x - (-1) -1 - (-1) -1 + 1 0
y - 6 -11
------ = -----
x + 1 0 ,
Now we cross multiply to have a linear equation
0( y - 6 ) = -11( x + 1 )
0 = -11x - 11, now multiply by -1
The equation now becomes
11x + 11
Answer:
12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
solve for y
2x−4y=10
-2x -2x subtract -2x from both sides
-4y = -2x +10
-4 -4 Divide both sides by -4 (coefficient on y)
y = -2/-4x + 10/-4
y = 1/2x - 5/2
the slope is the number on the x (coefficient)
and its 1/2
