Answer:

y=-6/5x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

Its sloping downwards, so a negative slope.

two points: (-5,4) and (5,-8)

---------------------------------------------

so first find the slope.

y2-y1 / x2-x1  <= formula

so: -8-(4) / 5-(-5)

which becomes => -12/ 10

which is 6/5 the slope is 6/5

------------------------------------------

plug this into y=mx+b, where m is the slope

so: y=6/5x+b

------------------------------------------

obviously b is the y intercept, where the line meets y

the y intercept is -2

sooooooo final answer is

----------------------------------

y=6.5x+(-2)

-----------------------------------

Negative slope, so becomes y=6/5x-2

Answer:

y=-6/5x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given points (5,-8) and (-5,4)

Slope = m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = (-8-4/(5-(-5)) = -12/10 = -6/5

Y-intercept = b = (0,-2)

Final equation: y=-6/5x-2

Please answer this question <br><br> x^2 = 11x
Masteriza [31]

{x}^{2}  = 11x \\  {x}^{2}  - 11x = 0 \\ x(x - 11) = 0

Product is equal to 0 when one of multipliers is equal to 0, so

x = 0

Or

x - 11 = 0 \\ x = 11

Answer: x=0 or x=11
