A line has slope 2/3 and y intercept -2. Which answer is the equation of the line?

Bingel [31]

Answer:

y=2/3x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the given options are in slope intercept form.

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b

This is where m is the slope fo the line and b is the y intercept

That said, we can simply plug the given values into the form.

y=(2/3)x+(-2)

Simplify

y=2/3x-2

Answer:

56 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

I'd recomend using something like "Desmos" to plot the points so then you can see the points and the rectangle. Then count the length and width. For the this rectangle the length was 8 and the width was 7, multiply these and you get the answer of 56 sqaure units.

What is an equation of a line that passes through the point of (-8 2) and (-4,-3)

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

<h2>y = -5/4x -8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

$(-8,2)=(x_1 ,y_1)\\(-4 ,-3) = (x_2 ,y_2)\\\\\frac{y-y_1}{x-x_1} = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\ \\\frac{y-2}{x-(-8)}= \frac{-3-2}{-4-(-8)}\\ \\\frac{y-2}{x+8}= \frac{-5}{-4+8} \\ \\\\\frac{y-2}{x+8} = \frac{-5}{4}\\ \\Cross\:Multiply \\4(y-2) = -5(x+8)\\\\4y-8 =- 5x-40\\\\4y = -5x-40+8\\\\4y =- 5x-32\\\\\frac{4y}{4} = \frac{-5x}{4} + \frac{-32}{4} \\\\y = -\frac{5}{4}x-8$
