anonymous · Answer

Can you explain to me how you worked this problem out?

anonymous · Answer

okay hold on

anonymous · Answer

I have to find y=mx +b
my slope is 6/13... (-3,6)

when I plug it in this is what I get
 6= 6/13(-3) + b
now I have to solve for b???

anonymous · Answer

Im confused because of the fraction

anonymous · Answer

y=mx+b     <------slope intercept formula
6=6/13( -3) + b     <----your equation
6= -18/13 + b  <---- you have to multiply 6/13 times -3 which gives you -18/13
now you have to add -18/3 to 6 which gives you 60/13
I mad a mistake sorry....the answer is 4.61538 which rounds to 4.6

anonymous · Answer

OK. you added -18/3 i thought its suppose to be -18/13.. ??

anonymous · Answer

How did you get 60/13??
