1) Find the graph of a line passing through (-1, 4) and (2, 0).
The slope of two points can be determined by dividing the difference of y-values by the difference of x-values:
The slope of this equation is -4/3. Inputting this into the slope-intercept form of an equation, we get:
To find b, substitute x and y for one of the given coordinate pairs:
0 = (-4/3)(2) + b
0 = -8/3 + b
8/3 = b
Substitute the b value into the equation to finish the line:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
equation: y = 4x
graph is attached
Step-by-step explanation:
Let y represent the cost of the peaches in dollars. Let x represent their weight in pounds. Then the relation between the two variables is ...
cost = (cost per pound) × (pounds)
y = 4x
__
This graphs as a line through the origin with a slope of 4. In the attached, the x- and y-axes have different scales so more of the graph can be seen.
