The function has a slope : m = - 2 and contains the point ( 8, 12 ).
y = m x + b
12 = ( - 2 ) * 8 + b
12 = - 16 + b
b = 12 + 16
b = 28
The slope-intercept form of the function is:
y = - 2 x + 28
Answer:
y= -3x/5
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
m= rise/run = -3/5 (go from one point to the other on the graph)
y-intercept is (0,0)
Answer:
x² + 9x + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: FOIL
x² + 8x + x + 8
Step 2: Combine like terms
x² + 9x + 8
3/9 reduces to 1/3 (divide both parts by the GCF 3)
Then use long division to divide 1/3
