Answer:
-3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Option 1
Direction of the line: Down
-Negative Slope
Rise=-3
Run=4
Rise/Run=-3/4
Option 2
Points: (1,-2) and (-3,1)
y2-y1/x2-x1= 1-(-2)/-3-1
1+2/-3-1
-3/4
Since the slope is -2 we know that m=-2. Now use the standard form of y=mx+b and plug in the coordinates (-8,2). We know y=2, x=-8, and m=-2. Therefore we get 2=-2(-8)+b. Now solve for b and you get -14. Therefore, the equation is y=-2x-14.
Hope this helped!
The answer is 8, hope this helps :)
So, we know the center is at -1, -3, hmmm what's the radius anyway?
well, the radius will be the distance from the center to any point on the circle, it just so happen that we know -7, -5 is on it, thus
