Answer:
is there more to the problem
Answer:
Y1 intercept = 2
(0,2) (3,-7)
m= (-7 - 2) / (3-0) =-9/3 = - 3
Then y = - 3x + 2
Y2 intercept = - 8
(0,-8) (3,-7)
m = (-7 - - 8) / (3-0) = 1/3
Then y= (1/3)x-8
Answer:
Simplifying
(20m + 3) + -1(7m + -5) = 0
Reorder the terms:
(3 + 20m) + -1(7m + -5) = 0
Remove parenthesis around (3 + 20m)
3 + 20m + -1(7m + -5) = 0
Reorder the terms:
3 + 20m + -1(-5 + 7m) = 0
3 + 20m + (-5 * -1 + 7m * -1) = 0
3 + 20m + (5 + -7m) = 0
Reorder the terms:
3 + 5 + 20m + -7m = 0
Combine like terms: 3 + 5 = 8
8 + 20m + -7m = 0
Combine like terms: 20m + -7m = 13m
8 + 13m = 0
Solving
8 + 13m = 0
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-8' to each side of the equation.
8 + -8 + 13m = 0 + -8
Combine like terms: 8 + -8 = 0
0 + 13m = 0 + -8
13m = 0 + -8
Combine like terms: 0 + -8 = -8
13m = -8
Divide each side by '13'.
m = -0.6153846154
Simplifying
m = -0.6153846154Step-by-step explanation:
