Uhh... what are the options?
Here's some possible ones:
0.2
1/5
Answer:
k = ⅕
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept equation for a straight line is
y = mx + b, where
m = the slope and
b = the y-intercept
Data:
(3,4) = a point on the line
(3k,0) = x-intercept
(0,-5k) = y-intercept
Calculations:
1. Slope
m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁) = (-5k - 0)/(0 - 3k) = -5/(-3) = ⁵/₃
This makes the equation
y = ⁵/₃x - 5k
2. k
Insert the value of the known point: (3,4)
4 = (⁵/₃)(3) - 5k
4 = 5 - 5k
-1 = -5k
k = ⅕
The figure below shows your graph passing through (3,4) with intercepts 3k and -5k on the x- and y-axes respectively
.
Answer:
what do you need help with?
Answer: Slope: -1/2
Step-by-step explanation: To find slope take 2 points that lie on the line and use this formula to solve: <em> </em>I will use (0, -2) and (2, -3) to solve
↑ ↑ ↑ ↑
y2 - y1 x1 y1 x2 y2
-----------
x2 - x1
So, for this question, substitute the x and y values from the points above to solve.
-3 - (-2)
----------- = - 1/2
2 - 0
Hope this helped. :)
