The easiest way is to graph it based upon the slope (m) and y-intercept (b), in the standard slope-intercept form: y = m (x) + b.
The line above intercepts the y-axis at y = -2, which is b. The slope (m) = rise/run = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1 ); so for the point (-4, 2) to (-6, 4) is:
(4-2)/(-6--4) = 2/(-6+4) = 2/-2 = -1.
So one form of the equation would be:
y = -1x - 2
Now the other form of an equation is point-slope: y-k = m (x-h), where the point is at (h, k)
and if we pick -5 for x (bc 5 it listed in 3 of the answers), the y at x=-5 looks like around +3
so we get: y-k = -1 (x--5)...
y-3 = -(x+5)... therefore D) is the correct answer:
Answer:
they ate 7/12 of the pizza I think but sry if I am wrong
92
Because similar triangles has congruent corresponding angle measures
Answer: y=1/2x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the equation of the line that passes through the points, we need to find out slope, m.
We plug our points into this formula to find slope.
Our slope is 1/2. To find our y-intercept, b, we would plug any point into the equation for slope-intercept form.
y=mx+b
y=1/2x+b
1=1/2(4)+b
1=2+b
b=-1
Now that we know b, our equation is y=1/2x-1.
Answer:
Amy
Step-by-step explanation:
Find their amounts of cheese per serving by dividing the cups of cheese by the number of people:
Sarah:
2.5/10
= 0.25
Amy:
1.6/8
= 0.8
Since 0.8 is bigger than 0.25, Amy has more cheese per serving.
