Answer:
y = 4/3x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the equation of a line with 2 points, we use the slope formula which is:

we will use (6,4) as
and we will use (-3,-8) as
. we plug this into the slope formula:

-8 - 4 = -12
-3 - 6 = -9
the slope is 
but we can simplify this further by dividing the fraction by -3
-12 / -3 = 4
-9 / -3 = 3
the simplified version of the slope is 
we can write this in slope-intercept form which is y =mx + b, with b being the y intercept and m being the slope
y = 4/3x + b <--- we need to solve for <em>b</em> in order to find the y intercept, so substitute x & y for a point on the line, we can use any point we are given, but for this example i will use (6,4)
4 = 4/3(6) + b < multiply 4/3 x 6
4 = 8 + b < subtract 8 from both sides
-4 = b
our y intercept would be (0,-4)
the equation looks like the following:
y = 4/3x - 4, which is our answer
A quadrilateral is any figure with 4 sides, no matter what the lengths of
the sides or the sizes of the angles are ... just as long as it has four straight
sides that meet and close it up.
Once you start imposing some special requirements on the lengths of
the sides, or their relationship to each other, or the size of the angles,
you start making special kinds of quadrilaterals, that have special names.
The simplest requirement of all is that there must be one pair of sides that
are parallel to each other. That makes a quadrilateral called a 'trapezoid'.
That's why a quadrilateral is not always a trapezoid.
Here are some other, more strict requirements, that make other special
quadrilaterals:
-- Two pairs of parallel sides . . . . 'parallelogram'
-- Two pairs of parallel sides
AND all angles the same size . . . . 'rectangle'
(also a special kind of parallelogram)
-- Two pairs of parallel sides
AND all sides the same length . . . 'rhombus'
(also a special kind of parallelogram)
-- Two pairs of parallel sides
AND all sides the same length
AND all angles the same size . . . . 'square'.
(also a special kind of parallelogram, rectangle, and rhombus)
Equation: y = 8x - 1
Compare it with, y = mx + b
Slope, m = 8
Now, parallel line must have equal slope, = 8
We know, y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = 8(x + 6)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
m=-15
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable. m=-15
To solve this find the common number that can be divided by both and use that number.
In this case, 4 is divisible by both 4 and 12, and thus the final expression would be
4(d + 3e).
