Answer: -1/3
(7,-1)= (x1,y1)
(-2,2)= (x2,y2)
Slope=
=
=
1/-3 is the same thing as -1/3
Set equal to each other
x^2 - 8 = 2x
x^2 - 2x - 8 = 0
Factor
(x - 4)(x + 2) = 0
x = 4 or x = -2
Plug in 4
y = 2x or y = x^2 - 8
y = 2(4) or y = 4^2 - 8
y = 8
Plug in -2
y = 2x or y = x^2 - 8
y = 2(-2) or y = (-2)^2 - 8
y = -4
There are two solutions
(4, 8) and (-2, -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no graph .so there is no way it can be answered.
please don't be offended
I'm going to have to go with choice "c". 10x - 1 with the remainder of 5
