If you graph (0,56) and (56,0) where will they intercept.
since those are points, they probably wont.
but if you are talking about lines, then they will intersect at (56,56) think about it graphically. if one is a straight line at 56x and the other a straight line at 56y, then every point along those lines will have the same x or y value. they will meet when those values are the same
56-0 ----- 0-56 56/-56 =-1 =slope y-0 ---- x-56 y=(x-56)-1 y=-x+56 points are the same
so math frick are you saying that the answer is -1
(0,56) is a point up the y-axis and the other one is a point along the x-axis. What do you want to do with the points?
the slope is -1
The question asked me with those numbers where would the line intersect
I you join up the points to make a line , they intersect the axes at those same points.
you should try sketching it on a graph paper for better understanding
