\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ -3 &,& 4~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ 2 &,& 1~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope =  m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{1-4}{2-(-3)}\implies \cfrac{1-4}{2+3}\implies \cfrac{-3}{5}

Write an equation of each line with the given slope and y-intercept. slope =1/2 ; y-intercept = 0
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations of lines are written in slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope is 1/2 and the y-intercept is 0. Therefore, we can substitute 1/2 for m and 0 for b.

y=1/2x+0

Adding 0 onto the end doesn't change the equation and doesn't serve a purpose, so it can be removed from the end of the equation.

y=1/2x

The equation is: y=1/2x

(y - x)/(y + x)

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/x - 1/y)/(1/x + 1/y) =

= (1/x - 1/y)/(1/x + 1/y) × (xy)/(xy)

= (y - x)/(y + x)
