To find the equation of a line using two given set of points, you must first find slope. To do so, we must use the slope formula:
y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
In this case:
1 - 9 / -1 - 3 = -8 / -4
- 8 / -4 = 2 (simplified)
Now we can use the point-slope formula:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = 2(x + 1 )
y - 1 = 2x + 2
y = 2x + 3
In order to make 3x - y = 6 in slope intercept form, we must isolate y.
- y = -3x + 6
Note: y cannot be negative, so we'll multiply both sides by -1
( -1 ) - y = - 3x + 6 ( -1 ) = y = 3x -6
Find cost of shoes first (7.50)
subtract from the total value (55.20-7.50= 47.7)
then divide by 5.30 (47.7/ 5.3= 9)
So to graph you problem you should first consider that the one side of the bar is 150feet because it is in the other partitioned of the fence and the function of it would be 150(x) because the barn's area is calculated through it length time width. I hope this will help
