Step-by-step explanation:
When it says y varies directly with x it just means that y and x are proportional/equal to each other. The constant of variation and the constant of proportionality are the same thing just different way of saying it so they can confuse you and make your life miserable. Since y and x are proportional to each other and the constant of proportionalty is -5 to make an equation that represents a line you use the formula y=mx+b. That is the slope of the line. With that formula let's first plus in the x so we have y=m2+b. The formula for direct variation is y=kx as well that's good to know and it's good to memorize all these formulas. Math becaomes easier when you have the process down pat and you just need to plug numbers into different equations, expressions, and scenarios. Do m = [y1 - y2] / [x1 - x2] and you'll get the answer.
First we need the slope and the y int which can be found by putting ur equation in y = mx + b form, where m is ur slope and b is ur y int.
8x + 2y = 24
2y = -8x + 24
y = -4x + 12.....so the slope is -4, and the y int is 12 or (0,12)
to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x....in either the original equation or the slope intercept equation
8x + 2y = 24
8x + 2(0) = 24
8x = 24
x = 24/8
x = 3.....so the x int is 3 or (3,0)
now plot ur intercepts (3,0) and (0,12)......now start at ur y int (0,12)...and since ur slope is -4, u come down 4 spaces, then to the right 1 space, then down 4, and to the right 1...keep doing this and u should cross the x axis at (3,0)
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(-1-9)/(-3-2)
m=10/-5
m=-2
y=-2x+b
9=-2*-3+b
9=b+6
b=3
y=-2x+3
A
