Answer:
y = -6x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, you do rise/run. To get to one point from another, you move one unit to the right, and six units down.
Now to find the y-intercept, you need to identify the point that meets in the y-axis. That would be 2.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
subtract 8 from both sides
8-2x-8=-4x+4-8
simplify
-2x=-4x-4
add 4x to both sides
-2x+4x=-4x-4+4x
Simplify
2x=-4
divide both sides by 2
2x/2=4/2
simplify
x=-2
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
5x - 8(x + 5) = 6 - 3x
Remember to follow PEMDAS. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.
First, distribute -8 to all terms within the parenthesis
-8(x + 5) = (-8)(x) + (-8)(5) = -8x - 40
5x - 8x - 40 = 6 - 3x
Isolate the variable (x). Add 3x & 40 to both sides
5x - 8x (+3x) - 40 (+40) = 6 (+40) - 3x (+3x)
5x - 8x + 3x = 6 + 40
Simplify. Combine like terms
(5x - 8x + 3x) = (6 + 40)
0 = 46 ; False 0 ≠ 46 ∴ no solution is your answer
~
slope = rise over run = y/x
A (-1,3) slope = 3/-1 = -3
B (1,2) slope = 2/1 = 2
C (-3,-1) slope = -1/-3 = 1/3
2 lines need to be negative reciprocals in order to be a right triangle
negative reciprocal of -3 is 1/3
so this is a right triangle
