Answer:
38
Step-by-step explanation:
1, A and D are the same thing But I would go with C. Hope this Helps!
Answer: Choice A
y + 1 = -3(x+2)
=============================
Explanation:
Let's look through the answer choices.
Choices C and D show that the point (2,1) is on the line. But the graph does not show this. So we can rule out choices C and D.
With choice A, the slope is negative and choice B has a positive slope.
The answer must be choice A because the line is going downhill as we move from left to right.
--------------
A common method is to pick two points on the line and compute the slope using the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Once you know the slope, you would use point slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of straight line is y=mx+c
choose any two points on straight line
for me I choose:(-3,11) and (3,-1)
use these two points to find gradient,m.
m= (-1-11)/(3-(-3))
m= -2
now, y=-2x+c
choose any point on the straight line
I choose point (3,-1)
sub the point into the equation to find c
-1=-2(3)+c
c=5
equation: y=-2x+5
