Sagot :

Answer:

  1. y = -3/5 × -5 - 2
  2. y = 2 × -1 + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

#1

  1. y = mx + b
  2. m = -3/5, x = -5, b = -2, y = y
  3. put in correct order

#2

  1. (2, -1) - (5,5) = 6/3 = 2/1 = 2 (remember, y is over x. The formula is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1)
  2. Pick either point given (2, -1) or (5, 5)
  3. Plug the point in
  4. y = y, m = 2, x = 2, b = -1
  5. Put in order

#1

Equation in point slope form

  • y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
  • y+2=-3/5(x+5)
  • y=-3/5x-3-2
  • y=-3/5x-5

That's also slope intercept form

#2

Slope

  • m=(5+1)/5-2)
  • m=6/3
  • m=2

Equation in point slope

  • y+1=2(x-2)
  • y+1=2x-4
  • y=2x-5
