Answer:
y = 3x - 13................slope= 3, point= (5,2)
y = 3x + 11.................slope= 3, point= (2,17)
3y = x + 11................slope= 1/3, point= (-5,2)
3y = x - 13................slope= 1/3, point= (19,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
To match each equation to its slope and point, remember that an equation in y = mx + b has slope m. The point must also satisfy or make true the equation when substituted for (x,y).
y=3x-13 has slope 3. The point (2,17) make it false. But (5,2) makes it true.
17 = 3(2) - 13 2 = 3(5) - 13
17 = 6-13 2 = 15 - 13
17 = - 7 False 2 = 2 True
y=3x+11 has slope 3. This means (2,17) must be true.
3y=x+11 can be converted to y = 1/3x + 11/3. It has slope 1/3. Test each point.
2= 1/3(19) + 11/3 -2 = 1/3(17) + 11/3 2 = 1/3(-5) + 11/3
2 = 19/3 + 11/3 -2 = 17/3 + 11/3 2 = -5/3 + 11/3
False False 2 = 6/3 True
3y=x-13 can be converted to y = 1/3x - 13/3. It has slope 1/3. Test each remaining point.
2= 1/3(19) - 13/3 -2 = 1/3(17) - 13/3
2 = 19/3 - 13/3 -2 = 17/3 - 13/3
2 = 6/3 -2 = 4/3
True False
. Doing the math on the right, keeping in mind that logs have an unwritten base of 10, gives us 
. Rewriting this in exponential form is 
. That means that x = 8. Not negative, only positive.
