Answer:

The slope is -4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula:

$\displaystyle \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{rise}{run}$

$\displaystyle \frac{(-9)-(-5)}{1-0}=\frac{-4}{1}=-4$

Therefore, the slope is -4, and the correct answer is -4.

Hope this helps!

Don’t worry you’ll eventually get the hang of it once you keep trying!

So first use this formula: y2-y1/x2-x1
Then you’ll get your slope! = -4

Second choose a point and plug it into the point-slope formula: y-y1=m(x-x1)

Then solve and you get> y=-4x-5
In slope-intercept form: y=-4x-5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}y=2x-17&\text{subtract}\ 2x\ \text{from both sides}\\-3x-y=-13\end{array}\right\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x+y=-17\\-3x-y=-13\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad-5x=-30\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-5)}\\.\qquad\boxed{x=6}\\\\\\\text{Substitute the value of x to the first equation}\\\\y=2(6)-17\\y=12-17\\\boxed{y=-5}$
