Answer:

y = -\frac{3}{5}x -\frac{8}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x_1,y_1) = (-1,-1)

(x_2,y_2) = (4,-4)

Required

Determine the line equation

First, calculate the slope (m)

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{-4 - (-1)}{4 - (-1)}

m = \frac{-4 +1}{4 +1}

m = \frac{-3}{5}

m = -\frac{3}{5}

The equation is then calculated using:

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

This gives:

y - (-1) = -\frac{3}{5}(x - (-1))

y + 1 = -\frac{3}{5}(x +1))

Open bracket

y + 1 = -\frac{3}{5}x -\frac{3}{5}

Make y the subject

y = -\frac{3}{5}x -\frac{3}{5}-1

y = -\frac{3}{5}x +\frac{-3-5}{5}

y = -\frac{3}{5}x +\frac{-8}{5}

y = -\frac{3}{5}x -\frac{8}{5}

The area of the rectangular table is 18 square feet the width of the table is 3 ft what is its length
MrRa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, In solving to find the square feet of a rectangle, you need to know the length and the width to be able to get the answer. Length x Width = area. In this case you already know the area, so just reverse the steps. 18 Ft is the area and the width is 3ft, you’re just missing length. 18/3 = 6. 6ft is the length
