Find the equation for the line that passes through (4, - 8) that has slope - 2. Give your answer in

Mathematics

NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago

Answer:

y+8=-2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1) where m is the slope, and (x1,y1) is a point.

We are given all of that information:

slope: -2

point: (4,-8)

substitute the numbers into the equation

y--8=-2(x-4)

we can make --8 to positive 8

so:

y+8=-2(x-4)

this is the equation in point-slope form

Hope this helps!

Kevin drove for 4 hours and then stopped to eat dinner. The total distance he had driven at different time intervals is shown on
natta225 [31]

Answer:

If you want a simple average, you can add all the speeds you see and divide them by the number of how many they are.  

So firstly you have to calculate the speed of the first point, which is:  

20 miles/0.5 hour

That means: 40 miles/hour

That would be your first "speed"

Then you calculate all of them :speed1+speed2+speed3 = something.  

As an example: 20miles/hr + 40miles/hr+0miles/hr = 60miles/hr

Then, you divide it by how many "speeds" they are: 60miles/hr divided by 3 if I continue my previous example.

It is my first answer, and I hope I could help you a bit!

Sorry for the awkward English, as it is not my mother tongue.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (7, 2) and (2, 12)
Anika [276]

Step-by-step explanation:

the general slope intercept form is

y = ax + b

a is the slope, b is the y-intercept (when x=0).

the slope is the ratio y/x indicating how much y changes, when x changes for a certain amount of units when going from one point to another.

going from (7, 2) to (2, 12) :

x changes by -5 (from 7 to 2), y changes by +10 (from 2 to 12).

so, the slope is 10/-5 = -2

therefore, we have already

y = -2x + b

we get b by using the coordinates of one of the points as x and y. e.g. (7, 2)

2 = -2×7 + b = -14 + b

16 = b

so, the full line equation is

y = -2x + 16
