Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2/3
(2,-5)...x = 2 and y = -5
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y int
-5 = -2/3(2) + b
-5 = - 4/3 + b
-5 + 4/3 = b
- 15/3 + 4/3 = b
- 11/3 = b
equation is : y = -2/3x - 11/3...but we need it in standard form
Ax + By = C
y = -2/3x - 11/3
2/3x + y = - 11/3....multiply by 3
2x + 3y = -11 <== standard form
<span>1.6m − 4.8 = −1.6m
<u>- 1.6m -1.6m
</u> -4.8 = -3.2m
<u>
</u>divide both sides by -3.2
m = 1.5</span>
