Line JK: (y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁)
      [(-3)-11] / [1-(-3)] = -14/4 == -7/2
Point slope formula: y-y₁=m(x-x₁)
     y-(11)=-7/2[x-(-3)]
y-11= -7/2x-21/2                                                 -7/2*3= -21/2   
     Add 11 to both sides.

  y= -7/2x+1/2...

Hello!

First of all we find the slope by dividing the difference of the y values by the difference of the x values as seen below.

\frac{-3-11}{1+3} = -\frac{14}{4} = \frac{7}{2}

The slope of our line is 7/2, or 3.5
-------------------------------------------------------------
Now we will put the slope and a point on our line into slope intercept form and solve for b. We will use (-3,11).

11=3.5(-3)+b
11=10.5+b
b=0.5

Our final equation is shown below.

y=3.5x+0.5

I hope this helps!

The equation would be -1/4x
This is because the slope is one unit down and four units to the right

HELP PLEASE!!!!<br> THERE R 3 QUESTIONS. MAKE SURE TO ANSWER ALL 3!!!<br> TYSM

Answer:
1. k=2
2. b=2f
3. 68

Explanation

1. y=kx (replace x&y with 2 values)

12=k(6) (isolate k)
/6 /6

2=k *check with another value to see if k truly is 2

2. since the constant of variation is 2, we can see that 2x the number of flowers make up the birds. so...

b(birds/y-value)=2(constant)f(number of flowers)

b=2f

3. input 34 into f, since there are 34 flowers

b=2*34 (use mental math)

b=68
in other words, there will be 68 birds.
