Write the equation of the line,in slope-intercept form, that has a slope of -2 and goes through the point (1,1)
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -2x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the equation of the line, start by using point-slope form with the known information.

y - y1 = m(x -x1)

y - 1 = -2(x - 1)

Now that we have this, solve for y.

y - 1 = -2x + 2

y = -2x + 3

Is (-2, 0) the solution to the system below?
o-na [289]

Answer:

No, the answer is (-3/7, -33/7)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-3x-6 can be rewritten as y+3x=-6

so, our two equations are:

1. y+3x=-6

2. 3y+2x=-15

we can multiply the first equation by 3.

1-1.3y+9x=-18

Now we can subtract the second equation from equation 1-1.

3y+9x=-18

<u>-(3y+2x=-15)</u>

7x=-3

x=-3/7

Now that we have x, let's plug it into an equation. I will plug it into the first equation.

y=-3(-3/7) - 6

y=9/7 - 6

y=-33/7

so the points are (-3/7, -33/7)
