Answer:
y =6x+17
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-7- -1)/(-4 - -3)
= (-7+1)/(-4+3)
-6/-1
6
The slope intercept form of the equation is
y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 6x+b
Substitute a point into the equation
-1 = 6(-3) +b
-1 = -18+b
Add 18 to each side
17 =b
The equation is
y =6x+17
There was ninety three thousand one hundred seventy two people
This is a simple Pythagorean Theorem problem. 7 is the hypotenuse so you would do c^2-a^2=b^2. In this case 7^2-2^2=b^2. 7^2 is 49 and 2^2 is 4 so you have 49-4=b^2. 49-4 is 45. The square root of 45 is 6.70. So x=6.70
