The equation of a line that passes through (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
find slope
slope between (x1,y1) and (x2,y2) is
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
given
(-3,2) and (2,1)
slope=(1-2)/(2-(-3))=(-1)/(2+5)=-1/5
pikc a point
if we pick (-3,2)
(x1,y1)
x1=-3
y1=2
y-2=-1/5(x-(-3))
y-2=-1/5(x+3)
that is D
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y = 1/2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is the rise (up) over run (left or right depending on if the number is negative) between points. So the next point on the graph is up 5 and over 10. this simplified is 1/2. Then you put this into y=mx which is y=1/2x
I believe this question logically tells us to find the value of w. The two equations are already equated. Since there is 1 unknown and 1 equation, the system is solvable. The solution is as follows:
5/(6w+21) = -1/3(2w - 9)
5/(6w+21) = -1/(6w - 27)
Cross multiplying the terms:
5(6w - 27) = -1(6w +21)
30w - 135 = -6w - 21
30w + 6w = -21 + 135 = 114
36w = 114
w = 114/36
w = 19/6 or 3.167
