-2(5y-20) - 5y = -5
-10y + 40 - 5y = -5
-15y + 40 = -5
-15y = -45, y = 3
x = 5(3) - 20
x = 15 - 20, x = -5
Solution: x = -5, y = 3... or (-5,3)
1. What is an equation of a line, in point-slope form, that passes through (1,-7) and has a slope of -2/3?
Point Slope form y − y1 = m(x − x1)
Y1: -7 x1:1 slope :-2/3
Y-(-7)=-2/3(x-1)
Y+7=-2/3(x-1)
2. What is the equation of a line, in point-slope form, that passes through (-2,-6) and had a slope of 1/3?
Y-(-6)=1/3(x-(-2))
Y+6=1/3(x+2)
3.What is an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the points (4,5) and (-3,-1)
SlopeM: =change in y/change in x
M= -1-5/-3-4
M= -6/-7
M=6/7
So now slope:6/7, point (4,5)
Y-y1=m(x-x1)
Equation in point slope
Y-5=6/7(x-4)
