12% aka 12 days it didn't rain
Answer:
y = -1/3x - 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use rise over run to find the slope: (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Plug in the points:
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-7 + 3) / (6 + 6)
-4 / 12
= -1/3
Plug in the slope and a point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:
y = mx + b
-3 = -1/3(-6) + b
-3 = 2 + b
-5 = b
Plug in the slope and b into y = mx + b
y = -1/3x - 5 is the equation of the line
AFB, the sides are similar
A line perpendicular to y = -2x + 5 will have an equation in the form of:
y = (1/2)x + b
Since the graph must intersect (-2,9), we plug in this point to solve for b.
9 = (1/2)*(-2) + b
9 = -1 + b
10 = b
So the equation is:
y = (1/2)x + 10
The answer is A.
