Answer:
y = -4x +2
Step-by-step explanation:
As x-values increase by 1, y-values decrease by 4. The slope of the line is ...
... m = (change in y)/(change in x) = -4/1 = -4
We can use the first (x, y) pair as a point to use in the point-slope form of the equation of a line. That form can be written, for slope m and point (h, k) ...
... y = m(x -h) +k
using m = -4 and (h, k) = (1, -2), we can fill in the numbers to get ...
... y = -4(x -1) -2
... y = -4x +4 -2 . . . . eliminate parentheses
... y = -4x +2 . . . . . . slope-intercept form
_____
<em>Alternate approach</em>
After you recognize that a change in x of 1 gives a change in y of -4, you can work backward one step to find the table value for y corresponding to x=0. That will be -2+4 = +2. Now, you know both the slope (-4) and the y-intercept (+2), so you can write the equation directly from this knowledge:
... y = -4x +2
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
A. Scale factor
When you dilate an object by a scale factor, you multiply its line lengths by the same number.
If EF/AB = 13/7, the scale factor is 13/7.
B. Length of EF

C. Area of EFGH
If the lengths in a shape are all multiplied by a scale factor, then the areas will be multiplied by the scale factor squared.
ABCD is dilated by a scale factor of 13/7, so its area is dilated by a scale factor of

The area of its dilated image EFGH is

Answer:
it's true! it's easier to solve for y because there's no coefficient in front of it unlike the second one that has "9y."
Answer:
y = (C-Ax) /B and x = (C-By)/A
Step-by-step explanation:
y
By = C-Ax
y = (C-Ax)/B
x
Ax = C-By
x = (C-By)/A
