Step-by-step explanation:
For every increase in the x-value by 1,
the y-value decreases by -2.
(From 3 to 1 and from 1 to -1)
Hence, slope of line k
= Rise/Run = (-2)/1 = -2. (A)
Answer:
3 - (-7)
= 3 + 7.
Step-by-step explanation:
A double negative is equivalent to a plus.
We have the slope m = (6-3)/(4-1) = 3/3 = 1;
Then, y - 3 = 1·( x - 1);
finally, y = x + 2.
