I guess by slope, you mean gradient.

By knowing the gradient, and a coordinate at which the line passes through, we can use:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

to get the equation of the line in the form (y = mx + c).


y - 5 = (-3 / 4)(x - 4)

y - 5 = (-3 / 4)x + 3


Rearrange.


y = (-3 / 4)x + 8

They would have to drive 9 miles for the taxi to cost the same.

Hope this helped, this is the longest way to work it out but also the simplest.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

It looks like you wrote the equation in point-slope form perfectly!

But for part c, it seems as though x1 and y1 would represent parts of the midpoint formula. So, I would specify and say that they represent the midpoint, not just a point.
