Find an equation for the line that passes through the points (5.-5) and (-4,-2)
ANEK [815]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-\dfrac{10}{3}\to x+3y=-10}

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>

<em>b</em><em> - y-intercept</em>

The formula of a slope:

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

We have the points (5, -5) and (-4, -2).

Substiute:

m=\dfrac{-2-(-5)}{-4-5}=\dfrac{-2+5}{-9}=\dfrac{3}{-9}=-\dfrac{1}{3}

Put the value of the slope and the coordinates of the point (5, -5) to the equation of a line:

-5=-\dfrac{1}{3}(5)+b

-5=-\dfrac{5}{3}+b               <em>add 5/3 to both sides</em>

-\dfrac{15}{3}+\dfrac{5}{3}=b\\\\-\dfrac{10}{3}=b\to b=-\dfrac{10}{3}

Finally we have the equation of a line in the slope-intercept form:

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-\dfrac{10}{3}

Convert to the standard form <em>(Ax + By = C)</em>:

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-\dfrac{10}{3}          <em>multiply both sides by 3</em>

3y=-x-10              <em>add x to both sides</em>

x+3y=-10

What two numbers multiple to -3468 and adds to 24
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

72.1 and -48.1

Step-by-step explanation:

I set up the equations x + y = 24 and x*y=-3468. Then I substituted for y and used the quadratic formula to come to two numbers rounded to about 72.1 and -48.1. Hope that helps :)
