Y=kx
-5=k(15)
-5/15=k
-1/3=k
now,
y=-1/5x
3=-1/5x
3×5=-1(x)
15=-1(x)
multiplying both sides by -1,we get
-15=x

Organize your data and find the rate of change.
LuckyWell [14K]
A .E is 7 inches for the left arm
E is 8 1/2 inches for the left foot
the inputs look like the length of the arm (ie x) the outputs are the length of the foot 
<span>rate of change=<span>change in y change in x</span></span> use the data you gathered or this equation they give you  = 0.860 •  + 3.302


B. find the difference in y, then the difference in x, then divide (y over x) to get the slope
8-7/7 1/2-6 1/2 = 1/1 =1

C.you plug in any (x,y) point you used to find the slope
Solve for B
y = mx+b y = 1*x + b 7.5 = 1*8 + b b =
7.5 - 8 = -0.5
<span>y = x - 0.5</span>

Hope this helps

11. Write the equation in slope intercept form that has a slope of -23 and passes through the point (-1, 2).
insens350 [35]
11. y = -23x - 21

You can get this by starting with y = mx + b (slope intercept form). Then put in all the knowns and solve for the b. 

2 = -23(-1) + b
2 = 23 + b
-21 = b

Then add that to the end of the equation with m = -23

12. -5

The y-intercept of an equation is always the number added on at the end of an equation. It is also the number with no x attached to it. 

13. 8x^9y^6

When you use the law of exponents, you need to make sure the exponent goes to each individual term. When we cube the 2, it becomes 8. When you cube x^3, you get x^3*x^3*x^3 or x^9. And with y^2 you get y^6
