You could cross cancel the a and your final answer would be 5/11
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1, 3) ⇒ x₁ = 1, y₁ = 3
(7, 2) ⇒ x₂ = 7, y₂ = 2
So the slope:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1,5) (5,8)
x,y. x,y
Formula: <u>y2-y1</u>
x2-x1
so...
<u>8-5</u><u>=</u> <u>3</u>
5-1 = 4
so... <u>3</u>

Answer:
y + 1 = 3(x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = 3 and (a, b) = (- 8, - 1) , thus
y - (- 1) = 3(x - (- 8)), that is
y + 1 = 3(x + 8)
