Answer:

y = -2x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to find the slope of the line that passes through these points. To find the slope of the line, we use the slope formula: (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

I will use the first point (1, 10) and the last point (5, 2)

Plug in these values:

(2 - 10) / (5 - 1)

Simplify the parentheses.

= (-8) / (4)

Simplify the fraction.

-8/4

= -2

This is your slope. Plug this value into the standard slope-intercept equation of y = mx + b.

y = -2x + b

To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, I will use the last point (5, 2). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.

2 = -2(5) + b

To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x(5)

2 = -10 + b

Now, add 10 to both sides to isolate b.

12 = b

Plug this into your standard equation.

y = -2x + 12

This is your equation.

Check this by plugging in the other point you have not checked yet (1, 10).

y = -2x + 12

10 = -2(1) + 12

10 = -2 + 12

10 = 10

Your equation is correct.

Hope this helps!

Gray can ride his bike 6miles in 20 minutes at this rate how many miles can he ride in 100 minutes
oksano4ka [1.4K]
30. Since he can ride the bike 6 miles in 20 mins, and 100 divided by 20 is 5, the answer would be given to you by multiplying 5x6, which is 30. So he can travel 30 miles in 100 minutes.
