Finding the slope, you get [4-(-2)]/[-1-2]=6/-3 = -2
Plugging (2,-2) and -2 into the formula y=mx+b, you get that -2=-4+b.
Therefore, b=2, making the equation y = -2x+2
Because JKLM is a parallelogram, MT = TK.
MT: 8y + 18
TK : 12y - 10
MT = TK
8y + 18 = 12y - 10
8y - 12y = -10 -18
-4y = -28
y = -28/-4
y = 7
MT: 8y + 18 → 8(7) + 18 = 56 + 18 = 74
<span>TK : 12y - 10 </span>→ 12(7) -10 = 84 - 10 = 74
The value of y is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
this is a nonlinear function
Step-by-step explanation:
a linear function is when the y value increases the same amount every time the x value increases by 1(or any constant interval). in this problem when x increases 1, they y value increases by 2 for the first 3 sets of numbers, but in the 4th set of numbers the x value increases by 1 and the y value increases by 2. This does not follow the same pattern and therefore makes this nonlinear. A quicker way to figure this out when you have a graph like this is to draw a line through all the points in order of increasing x values or vice versa if the line you drew is straight all the way through then it is linear and if it isn't then it is nonlinear. I hope this helped.
