Answer: y=-1/2x+11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

equation of line is y=mx+b

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

m=2-9/7-(-7)

m=-7/14

m=-1/2

y=-1/2x+b

You can use either (x,y) point you want, the answer will be the same

(-7,9)

y=mx+b or 9=-1/2 × -7+b, or solving for b: b=9-(-1/2)(-7). b=11/2.

(7,2)

y=mx+b or 2=-1/2 × 7+b, or solving for b: b=2-(-1/2)(7). b=11/2.

so then you just put it all together

y=-1/2x+11/2

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

move all terms to the left:

-1.5x+12-(2.5x-12)=0

get rid of parentheses

-1.5x-2.5x+12+12=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variable.

-4x+24=0

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

-4x=-24

x=-24/-4 - divide

x=+6

Find the slope of (1,8) and (-1,-4)
aniked [119]

Answer: slope= 6

Slope intercept equation= y= 6x +2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope formula: (y2 - y1) ÷ (x2 - x1) > (-4-8) ÷ (-1-1) = -12/-2 or 6

Plug slope (-6) and one coordinate into point slope form: y-1=m (x-1)

where m is slope and (1,8) would be (x,y)

Y-8= 6(x-1) > y-8 = 5x -6 > y= 6x +2

Please Help, I need it for my homework
Naily [24]

Answer:

A)

p1 (0,0) p2 (1,2) given from the graph

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1 )

slope (m) = 2

y = mx+ b

b =0

y = 2x

b)

x = 0

y = 5

(0,5)

C)

gradient = slope

y = 3x + b

point given (0,12)

y = 3x + 12
