Answer:

y+2=1/2(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(0-(-2))/(3-(-1))

m=(0+2)/(3+1)

m=2/4

m=1/2

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-2)=1/2(x-(-1))

y+2=1/2(x+1)

Y + 2 =1/2(x – 3). Please help ?!?

Sidana [21]

first, spread the parenthesis. y+2=1/2x-1.5

second, add 1.5 to both sides. y+3.5=1/2x

third, multiply by 2. 2y+7=x

if you are solving for y, do not do the third step, instead, subtract by 3.5. y=x-3.5

hope this helps!

Solve the following system: 3x + 2y = 7 -4.5x - 3y = -10.5

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations :

3x + 2y = 7
-4.5x - 3y = -10.5

Multiplying Equation 1 times 3 and Equation 2 times 2 :

9x + 6y = 21
-9x - 6y = -21

Putting the equations in standard form after simplifying :

6y = -9x + 21 ⇒ y = -1.5x + 3.5
-6y = 9x - 21 ⇒ y = -1.5x + 3.5

As both equations are the same, the system will have infinitely many solutions.
