Write the slope-intercept form of the line through the points (4,-5) and (2, -1).

1 answer:

4 0

Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
to solve for m (slope) you must first subtract y2-y1 and x2-x1 then divide your answers

-1 - -5 = 4 (y)
2 - 4 = -2 (x)
4/-2 = -2

so your slope is -2

next plug in your slope and the point you choose

-1 = -2(2) + b
or
-5 = -2(5) +b

Tatiana [17]

If the radiation level is 100%, it would take 2.4 days to take the radiation level to 50%. However, the situation implies that the radiation level is 25% only, so we need to take 25% from 2.4 days to know the timeframe for a room to be emptied from the radioactive gas. 2.4 days multiplied by 0.25 will give a result of 0.6 day - the timeframe needed to empty the room out of the radioactive gas.
