Answer:
y = (-6/13)x + (4/13).,
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of the line is:
y = mx + b, where "m" is the slope and "b" gives the y-intercept
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (-2 - 4)/(5 - (-8))
m = -6/13
y = (-6/13)x + b
the line passes through the point (-8,4) means that for x = -8, y = 4
4 = (-6/13)(-8) + b
b = 4 - (-6/13)(-8)
b = 4/13
the equation of the line that passes through the points (-8,4) and (5,-2) is:
y = (-6/13)x + (4/13).
Answer:
h(t) = -16t2 + 144
h(1) = -16(12) + 144 = 128 ft
h(2) = -16(22) + 144 = 80 ft
h(2) - h(1) = 80 - 128 = -48 ft
It fell 48 ft between t = 1 and t = 2 seconds.
It reaches the ground when h(t) = 0
0 = -16t2 + 144
t = √(144/16) s = 3s
It reaches the ground 3s after being dropped.

Answer:
y = 5x - 7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the equation of a line with two points
y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1
Giving two points
( -4 , 10)(16 , -2)
x_1 = -4
y_1 = 10
x_2 = 16
y_2 = -2
Using the above formula
y_2 - y_1 / x_2 - x_1 = y - y_1 / x - x_1
-12 - 3 / -1 - 2 = y - 3 / x - 2
-15/-3 = y - 3 /x - 2
Cross multiply
-15(x - 2) = -3(y - 3)
-15x + 30 = -3y + 9
-15x + 30 + 3y - 9 = 0
-15x +30 - 9 + 3y = 0
-15x + 21 + 3y = 0
3y = 15x - 21 ( following y = mx + C
Dividing through by 3 to find y
3y/3 = 15x -21 / 3
y = 15x - 21 / 3
We can still separate
y = 15x / 3 - 21/3
y = 5x - 7
Therefore, the equation of the line is
y = 5x - 7
