Use slope formula to find slope
<span><span><span>−9−5</span><span>−/12−8</span></span>=<span><span>−14/</span><span>−20</span></span>=<span>7/10</span></span>
7/10 = m = slope
y= mx + b
y= (7/10)x + b
(8,5)
(5) = (7/10)(8) + b
b = -3/5
So....
<span>y=(<span>7/10)</span>x −<span>35
</span></span>
multiply by 10
<span>10y=7x−6</span><span>
--> -7x + 10y = -6
--> 7x - 10y = 6
So, if 7x - 10y = 3 a good model?</span>
Factor out the common term; 3
(3(x + 1))^2 = 36
Use the Multiplication Distributive Property; (xy)^a = x^ay^a
3^2(x + 1)^2 = 36
Simplify 3^2 to 9
9(x + 1)^2 = 36
Divide both sides by 9
(x + 1)^2 = 36/9
Simplify 36/9 to 4
(x + 1)^2 = 4
Take the square root of both sides
x + 1 = √4
Since 2 * 2 = 4, the square root of 2 is 2
x + 1 = 2
Break down the problem into these 2 equations
x + 1 = 2
x + 1 = -2
Solve the first equation; x + 1 = 2
x = 1
Solve the second equation; x + 1 = -2
x = -3
Collect all solutions;
<u>x = 1, -3</u>
