Hello!

To write an equation for this line, you must follow these steps:

1. M= Slope (-2/3)
2. X1= -9
3. Y1= 1
4. First, take the equation y - y1 = m(x - x1)
5. Plug the values into the equation
6. Y - 1 = -2/3(x - (-9))
7. Change the sign
8. Y - 1 = -2/3(x +9)
9. Distribute the -2/3
10. Y - 1 = -2/3x - 6
11. Add 1 to both sides
12. Y = -2/3x - 5

This gives you a final answer of y = -2/3x -5 (note that this equation is in slope intercept form)

Hope this helps!

Which of the following values would complete the ordered pair if the point is on the graph of f (x) = -3x + 2 ?
Scrat [10]

Answer: the y-coordinate that completes the point is 5.


Explanation:


An ordered pair (x, y) indicates the x-and-y coordinates of a general point, where x is the input value of a function and y is the output value.


The output value is y = f(x) and must be found applying the rule (function) to the given input value.


In this case the rulte is f(x) = - 3x + 2, and the input value, x,  is - 1 (the first value of the ordered pair).


This is the mathematical procedure:

  • x = - 1
  • f(x) = f (-1) = -3 (-1) + 2 = 3 + 2 = 5.
