Answer:
m = 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
-0.8 = -3.2m
m = 0.25
For the first line we have a slope of (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(2--2)/(1--1)=4/2=2 so we have:
y=2x+b, now solve for b with either of the points, I'll use: (1,2)
2=2(1)+b
b=0 so the first line is:
y=2x
Now the second line:
(1-10)/(4--2)=-9/6=-3/2 so far then we have:
y=-3x/2+b, using point (4,1) we solve for b...
1=-3(4)/2+b
1=-6+b
b=7 so
y=-3x/2+7 or more neatly...
y=(-3x+14)/2
...
The solution occurs when both the x and y coordinates for each are equal, so we can say y=y, and use our two line equations...
2x=(-3x+14)/2
4x=-3x+14
7x=14
x=2, and using y=2x we see that:
y=2(2)=4, so the solution occurs at the point:
(2,4)
Answer:
#1 is -9
#2 is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
-9x3 is -27 then add 10 to that you get -17
5x3 is 15 then subtract 1 and you get 14
