Answer:

The slope is 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct variation function will always go through the origin point (0, 0).

Therefore, we have the two points (0, 0) and (-2, -6).

We can use the slope formula to find the slope:

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

Substitute and evaluate:

\displaystyle m=\frac{0-(-6)}{0-(-2)}=\frac{6}{2}=3

Therefore, the slope of the function is 3.

To graph, simply plot (0, 0) and (-2, -6) and draw a line connecting them. This is shown below.

Answer:

y = 2/3x - 3

Slope: 2/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: 2/3x

y- intercept: (0,-3)

once it goes down it'll be -2/-3x which will go to through (-2,-6) as soon as it goes down from the y-intercept.

equation: y = 2/3x - 3

Answer:

-1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula, (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1).  In this case, there is a negative slope.  

Start from point, (1, 9) and go to point (4, 8).  

Use the formula:

(y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

Y2 = 8

Y1 = 4

X2 = 9

X1 = 1

(8 - 9)/(4 - 1) = -1/3

Therefore, the slope is -1/3

Solve for C a = b + c/d<br> a. c=ad-b<br> b. c= a+b/d<br> c. c=ad/b<br> d. c= ab+d
maksim [4K]

                                                         <u>a = b + c/d</u>

Subtract  'b'  from each side:      a - b  =  c/d

Multiply each side by  'd' :      <em>d (a - b) = c

What is the value for x
algol [13]
Those are adjacent angles. They will equal 180 degrees since they both ly on the same straight line. Straight line= 180 degrees. 

10x-20+6x+8=180

Add 20 to both sides. 

10x+6x+8= 200

Combine like terms. 

16x=192

Divide both sides by 16. 

x=12

I hope this helps!

Who ever solve this first I will give Brainliest to them
andriy [413]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem, you need to understand how the area of a parallelogram works. If you already know how the area of a parallelogram and the area of a triangle are related, then adding 79 and 10 and subsequently subtracting 72 and 8 to get 9 should make sense
