Let the unknown number be x.
<span>sum of a number and one: x + 1
</span>
<span>sum of a number and one is doubled: 2(x + 1)
</span>
<span>three less than the number: x - 3
2(x + 1) = x - 3
2x + 2 = x - 3
x + 2 = -3
x = -5
The number is -5.
</span>
point 1 = ( -1 , 5 ) point 2 = ( 5 , -5 )
equation of a line: y = mx + b
Find Slope (m):
( 5 - (-5)) / (-1 - 5))
= 10 / -6
= -3 / 2
slope = -3/2
Find y-intercept (b):
y = mx + b
y = -3/2 * x + b
5 = -3/2 * -1 + b <-------------- use the x and y coordinate of one of the . points. I used point 1 ( -1 , 5 )
b = 7/2 or 3.5
Assemble:
y = -3/2 * x + 3.5
What do you mean? If you want it in order than you can say it. -17, -10.5, -4, 2.5, 9
