Hello once again!
When you see a question like this, you need to find the equation of the straight line.
The formular used is y = mx + c
Where
m = slope
c = constant
First find the slope, since it's a straight line, any 2 coordinates can be used.
Now we need to substitude in the slope, and one of the coordinate you used to find the slope, to the formular to find the constant.
In this case i'm using the coordinate
(-2, 16)
y = mx + c
16 = -6(-2) + c
16 = 12 + c
c = 4
∴ The equation of the line is y = -6x + 4
The next step is to simply substitude in the x = 8 to the equation to find y.
y = -6(8) + 4
y = -48 + 4
y = -44

Let .
Simplifying both you get .
The set conjunction is .
So the answer is B.
Hope this helps.
Answer:
It should be 13 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
In the picture shown, the two red dots are the coordinates (-6, 2) and (6, -3). The smaller light blue dots is the distance from one red dot to the other red dot. I counted 17 units between the two and using a ruler, I estimated 12 units. In conclusion, it should be roughly 13 units. I hope this helps! If this is not the right answer, I would love to recieve some feedback of what I did wrong! Thank you!
