OpenStudy (anonymous):
didn't I just answer this question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got B :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oops! soooo sorry hold on
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in any case,
find the slope as stated: 4/5
then substitute it into the equation: y-y1=m(x-x1)
the point: (-2,1)
-2=x1
1=y1

here I'll post the right one

OpenStudy (anonymous):
get this equation into the form y=mx+b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
y-3=9(x+10)
y=9x+90+3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Chelsea04 so that's the form?

do you gave to solve?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not quite,
from y=9x+90+3 you simplify to
y=9x+93, then with the equation define m and b
OpenStudy (anonymous):
m is 9
b is 93
OpenStudy (anonymous):
oohhhh okay! So you add m and B? :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no, no need

m remember is the slope
b is the y intercept
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you just need to take it from the equation, so the answer is 9
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Ohh thank you sooo much! I'm almost finished <3 <3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
next?
