Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, "opposite" means "opposite sign."

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (2,-9)<br> and has a slope of -5.
balu736 [363]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find equation

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 9 = -5(x - 2)

y = -5x + 10 - 9

y = -5x + 1 → Equaton

If y/5+8=7, what is the value of y/5-2
Andrei [34K]
"<span>y/5+8=7, what is the value of y/5-2?"  Simplify the first equation:  
 
y/5 = 7 - 8, or -1, so y/5 = -1, or y = -5.

Then y/5 - 2 equals -5/5 - 2, or -3.</span>

What is the Standard Form of the line with x-intercept of 6 and y-intercept of 5?
kolbaska11 [484]

keeping in mind that standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

\bf \stackrel{\textit{x-intercept}}{(\stackrel{x_1}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})}\qquad \stackrel{\textit{y-intercept}}{(\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})} ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{5}-\stackrel{y1}{0}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{0}-\underset{x_1}{6}}}\implies -\cfrac{5}{6}

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{0}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{5}{6}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{6}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{6}}{6(y-0)=6\left(-\cfrac{5}{6}(x-6) \right)}\implies 6y=-5(x-6) \\\\\\ 6y=-5x+30 \implies 5x+6y=30
