The formula is y=mx+b
To get the slope or m, use this formula
(the second y minus the first y)/(the second x minus the first x)
Now set it up.
(10-7)/(2--1)
3/3=slope is 1.
y=1x+b
Insert one of the points for x and y.
i will do (-1,7)
7=1(-1)+b
7=-1+b
8=b
Insert this into the final equation:
y=1x+8
Try it out. If you're not sure, try both points. If it works, then you set it up correctly.
The answer would probably be D because you don't know what x is.
Answer:
sorry i just need to ask question
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The answer is y = -1/3x + 5 !
Step-by-step explanation:
If you observe the line, the y-intercept is 5, from the point in the graph (0,5). From that point, we can see that the rise over run is -1/3. Thus, y = -1/3x + 5.
