So,
The standard form is:
y = mx + b
First, we find "m," the slope. Subtract the y-coordinates from each other. Do likewise with the x-coordinates.
2 - -3 = 5
2 - 0 = 2
Slope = 5/2

Now, we can substitute the second solution into this equation for x and y and solve for "b."


Now we have our complete equation.
Replace x with 2 and solve each equation:
1/2(2) + 4 = 1 + 4 = 5
2+ 6 -1/2(2) -2 = 8-3 = 5
The answer is:
both expressions equal 5 when substituting 2 for x because the expressions are equivalent.

Answer:
0.75 cents
Step-by-step explanation:
You take...
$2.25 and subtract $1.50 to get 0.75 cents
In-depth...
Start off with taking a dollar away...
2.25 - 1.00 = 1.25
Then take off 0.50 cents...
We know that 0.50 cents are two 0.25 cents
So, we take off one 0.25 cent
1.25 - 25 = 1.00
Then the next 0.25 cents
*Remember: twenty-five (.25), fifty (.50), seventy-five (.75), a dollar (1.00)
<--- it is just adding 25 each time
If we subtract 0.25 cents from a dollar we get...
0.75 cents
