The linear rule should look like this y=a*x+b
As the function graph goes through the (0,0) point, the equation 0=a*0+b <=> b=0 must be true.
Now we only need to find a, using one of the points given. With (-4, 16):
16=-4*a <=> a=16/-4 <=> a= -4
So the rule looks the following way:
f(x)= -4*x
The person above me got that horrible wrong, do not put that.
You also wrote the question wrong, please be more careful when posting.
x-3y=18
Move x to the other side by subtracting it since it’s positive.
-3y = -x + 18
Divide the whole equation by -3 to find the value of just 1 y.
-3y/-3 = -x/-3 + 18/-3
y = 1/3x -6
20x+ 5y = 15
Move 20x to the other side. Sign changes from +20x to -20x
20x-20x+5y=-20x+15
5y=-20x+15
Divide both sides by 5
5y/5=y ( Cross out 5 and 5, divide by 5, 1*1*y=y)
-20/5=-4x
15/5=3
y=-4x+3 or y=3-4x
Answer: y=-4x+3 or y=3-4x
Answer:
5/7
Step-by-step explanation:
We have two points ( 2,-2) and (9,3)
We can find the slope using the slope formula
m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= ( 3- -2)/( 9-2)
= ( 3+2)/(9-3)
= 5/7
