Answer:
Slope intercept: y = -3/2x + 1
Point slope: y + 2 = -3/2 * (x - 2) [Forgot to add the work for this, I will add it if you need it, feel free to ask.]
Step-by-step explanation:
m = (change in y)/change in x)
But also
m = y_2 - y_1/x_2 - x_1
So lets substitute
m = 1 - (-2)/0 - (2)
Lets find the slope
m = 3/0 - (2)
m = 3/-2
m = -3/2 (Moved the negative)
Now we find the value of b using the equation of a line.
y = mx + b
y = (-3/2) * x + b
y = (-3/2) * (2) + b
-2 = (-3/2) * (2) + b
Now we find the value of b
Lets rewrite
-3/2 * 2 + b = -2
Cancel the CF of 2
-3 + b = -2
Move the terms without b to the right
b = -2 + 3
b = 1
Now we substitute our values of the slope and y-int into y = mx + b to find the equation.
y = -3/2x + 1
Answer: C
Step-by-step explanation: We see that it took James 10 minutes to go 0.5 miles, so to get how many miles an hour James is traveling, we need to get the miles to 1. To do this, multiply by 2, and this will give you that it took James 20 minutes to go 1 mile. This is option C.
You can't find the exact value of y, but you can find y in terms of x!
Adding 3y and subtracting 8 from both sides, we have:
2x-3y+3y-8=8+3y-8
2x-8=3y
Dividing by 3, we see that y=(2x-8)/3. This is the simplest form we can find for y.
This formula solve by discriminant (D=b^2-4ac)
A.) m=5/6
B.) y
=5/6x-3 use the slope formula y=mx+b
C.) y
-y1 = m(x-x1)
