Switch y and x to find the inverse:
x = 3y - 8
Now just solve for y
y = x/3 + 8/3
The perimeter of a rectangular field is 364 yards. If the width of the field is 84 yards, what is its length?
(364 : 2) - 84 =
182 - 84 =
98
First create the equation y=Mx+ B
B is the y intercept so when y = 0, B = -1.
Now we have y=Mx - 1
The slope is M. We can calculate this by using the formula M = (y2 -y1) / (x2 - x1)
Use the points (0, -1) and (2,3) for these values. So y2 = 3, y1 = -1, x2 = 2, x1 = 0
Plug them into the equation and solve
M = (3 + 1) / (2 - 0)
M = 4/2 = 2
Now we have the equation y = 2x - 1
Next to figure out if the points given are on the line you take the values and plug them into your equation like so: 4 = 2(-2) - 1
2(-2) - 1 does not equal 4 so this point does not fall on this line. Follow this same procedure for the next point given.
Answer:
-10/9 < -2/3 < 4/6 < 6/5 < 5/4
