Answer:

y = -2x -7

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 5 = -2 (x +1)

y + 5 = -2x -2 . move 5 to the other side by subtracting from both sides.

y = -2x -7

I am needing to know the answer to 3/7 of what number is 9?

kolezko [41]

In math, "of" almost always means "times".

So your question is: 3/7 times (the number) = 9

Multiply each side of that equation by 7 : 3 times (the number) = 63

Divide each side by 3 : <em> The number = 21</em>

What is the gradient?

notsponge [240]

Answer:

Gradient = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Gradient of a line = Slope of the line

Since, slope of a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ is given by,

Slope = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Given line in the graph passes through two points (1, 0) and (2, 2)

Therefore, slope or gradient of the line = $\frac{2-0}{2-1}$

= 2

Gradient = 2 will be the answer.
