Answer:

y = -2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we can use this formula: y2 - y1/x2 - x1

Y2 is the y - coordinate from the second coordinate, so you should be able to figure out what the rest of the letters represent in that formula.

So we would plug in the coordinates and find the slope.

-1 - (-5)/2 - 0

4/-2

slope = m = -2

We know the slope and coordinates, so we can plug those into the equation and find the y intercept, or b.

y = mx + b

-1 = -2(2) + b

-1 = -4 + b

3 = b

Now we know the slope and y intercept so we can put them into the equation to find the final equation, which is: y = -2x + 3

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

1. Calculate the slope from 2 points.

2. Substitute either point into the equation.

3.Solve for b, which is the y-intercept of the line.

4. Substitute b, -1, into the equation from step 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I gave you one extra than what you expected, if thats ok.

Can someone explain to me this derivative : y=3x√x
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

(9/2)√x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the radical to an exponent.

x√x = x^1 * x^1/2

= x^(1 + 1/2)

= x^3/2

So the derivative of 3x^3/2 is found as follows:

y' = 3 * 3/2x^(3/2 - 1)

= (9/2)x^1/2

= (9/2)√x.
