Write an equation in slope-intercept form of the line that passes through (-1, 4) and (0, 2).
arsen [322]

Answer:

y=-2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis)

<u>1) Determine the slope</u>

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} where the two given points are (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2)

Plug in the given points (-1, 4) and (0, 2)

=\frac{2-4}{0-(-1)}\\=\frac{-2}{0+1}\\=\frac{-2}{1}\\= -2

Therefore, the slope of the line is -2. Plug this into y=mx+b:

y=-2x+b

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept</u>

y=-2x+b

Recall that the y-intercept is the value of y when the line crosses the y-axis, meaning that the y-intercept occurs when x is equal to 0.

One of the given points is (0,2). Notice how y=2 when x=0. Therefore, the y-intercept of the line is 2.

Plug this back into the equation:

y=-2x+2

I hope this helps!

The length of a rectangular garden is 3 yd less than twice its length. The perimeter of the garden is 78 yd. What are the width
Alenkasestr [34]

Complete question :

Answer:

Width = 14 yards ; length = 25 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

The length of a rectangular garden is 3 yd less than twice its length. The perimeter of the garden is 78 yd. What are the width and length of the garden?

Width of garden (W) = w

Lenght of garden (L) = 2w - 3

Perimeter of a rectangle : 2 (L + W)

2(2w - 3 + w) = 78

2(3w - 3) = 78

6w - 6 = 78

6w = 78 + 6

6w = 84

w = 14 yards

Length = 2(14) - 3

Length = 28 - 3 = 25 yards
