Answer:

The scalar used does not exist in the real number system.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio 16:14 is not equivalent to the ratio 64:60 because the scalar used does not exist in the real number system.

Note, that the ratio 64:60 can be scaled down by 4 to be the ratio 16:15, which is not the ratio 16:14.

In order to scale 64:60 to 16:14 or vise versa, you'd have to use a number that simply does not exist in the real number system.

Cheers.

Slope = "rise over run" the difference in y values divided by the difference in x values
= 6/-3 = -2 = m. It's negative because as x increases, y decreases

plug that into the point slope formula, with either point. generally use the most simple point
y-h= m(x-k) where m= -2 and (k,h) = (2,-2)

y+2 = -2(x-2)

simply if you want

Y = -2x +4 -2 = -2x +2

or

2x +y = 2
