Answer:

Line JK passes through points J(-4,-5) and K(-6, 3).

Line JK has form of y = mx + b

=> -5 = -4m + b

=> 3 = -6m + b

Subtract 2nd equation from 1st equation:

=> -8 = 2m

=> m = -4

Substitute back m = -4 into 1st equation:

=> -5 = -4(-4) + b

=> b = -21

Hope this helps!

If two points on a line are A(10, −3) and B(12, 9), the rise is __________, and the run is __________, so the slope of the line

kherson [118]

The rise is the difference in y-coordinates:

y₂ - y₁ = 9 - (-3) = 12

The run is the difference in x-coordinates:

x₂ - x₁ = 12 - 10 = 2

The slope is the quotient of rise over run:

m = 12/2 = 6

========================

If two points on a line are A(10, −3) and B(12, 9), the rise is 12, and the run is 2, so the slope of the line is 6.

To estimate his travel time, joe divides the distance, d, in miles by 5 less than his expected average speed, in miles per hour.

Elis [28]

Distance is equal to rate times time, and time is the unknown in this instance. To find time, divide distance by rate. In this case, Joe wants to use a rate five miles per hour less than his planned speed of 75 miles per hour, which is 70. Dividing 310 miles by 70 miles per hour yields an expected travel time of 4.4 hours.
