Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
6x + 10y = 8 ( subtract 6x from both sides )
10y = - 6x + 8 ( divide each term by 10 )
y = - 
x + 
= - 
x 6 + 
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - → C
Distribute
remember
a(b+c)=ab+ac
2(2.5q+8)=2(2.5q)+2(8)=5q+16
1-5q+5q+16
1+0+16
17
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The line with points (1,2) and (-1,-8). Work out its equation.</u>
<u>The slope is:</u>
- m = (-8 - 2)/(-1 - 1) = -10/-2 = 5
<u>To find the y intercept, substitute x and y-xoordinates of point (1,2):</u>
- 2 = 5(1) + b
- b = 2 - 5
- b = -3
<u>The line is:</u>
<u>Point (x, 17), substitute y-coordinate and solve for x</u>
- 17 = 5x - 3
- 5x = 17 + 3
- 5x = 20
- x = 20/5
- x = 4
