Find the equation of the line connecting (0, 5) and (-2, 0).
As we go from the first point to the second, x decreases by 2 and y decreases by 5. Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run = -5/(-2), or 5/2.
Starting with the general equation of a line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, substitute the knowns as appropriate to determine the value of b:
y= mx + b => 5 = (5/2)(0) + b. Then b = 5, and the desired equation is
y = (5/2)x + 5.
Check this! If we subst. the coordinates of (-2,0) into this equation, is the equation true?
0 = (5/2)(-2) + 5
Yes. So, y = (5/2)x + 5 is the desired equation.
It would be 25 becuse the thing I did thats what I got
5 + 10 + 12 = 27 scores are less than 3
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
the 2^x - 2^x cancels out
Answer:
y = - 2x + 13
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (5, 3) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (4, 5)
m = 
= 
= - 2, thus
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (4, 5), then
5 = - 8 + c ⇒ c = 5 + 8 = 13
y = - 2x + 13 ← equation of line
