X=7.1cm
The solution is in the attached file
Sure,I do not agree because the answer is -20>-27
So to do this, we take any 2 coordinate points and subtract them to find the slope. For this one i'll go ahead and and take (4,6) and (-2,1), then we set them up. Subtract the X coordinates from each other and the Y's from each other.
4-(-2) change the two negatives to 4+2=6
6-1=5
So 6/5 is the slope, now lets simplify to get 6/5.
Your equation is y=6/5x+3
-Seth.
P.S. It may be y=6/5x+2.5 or something, i cant tell exactly where it goes through the y intercept.
Answer:
y = -4/5x + 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope form of an equation is y = mx + b
Sub in x and y coordinates and slope then isolate for b
-2 = -4/5(3) + b
-2 = -12/5 + b
-2 + 12/5 = b
b = -10/5 + 12/5
b = 2/5
Sub in b and the slope into the slope form equation
y = (-4/5)x + 2/5
