Use the 2 points to find the gradient of the line
Gradient = (y - y1)/(x - x1), y and y1 are the two different y values.
(2.3 - - 7.4)/(-4.3 - 1.3) = -97/56 = -1.732
Note: y and x both come from the same coordinate, and y1 and x1 also come from the same coordinates - (x , y), (x1 , y1)
Use the following to find the equation (x, x1, y, and y1 are not the same as the first part)
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Where x2 and y2 is an intersection (one of the coordinates you used) and m is the gradient you found.
So...
y - 2.3 = -1.732(x - - 4.3)
You can simplify this if you are required to.

i dont undrstand
Step-by-step explanation:
The y intercept is (0, -7)
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
<em><u>Given equation is:</u></em>
y - 3 = 5(x - 2)
<em><u>Find the x intercept</u></em>
Substitute y = 0 in given equation
<em><u>Find the y intercept:</u></em>
Substitute x = 0 in given equation
Thus the y intercept is (0, -7)
Answer:
(x) = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 (x) + 4 = 7
3/4 (4) + 4 = 7
0.75 (4) + 4 = 7
3 + 4 = 7
7 = 7
