Question

A. What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (4, 0) (0, 5)? B. Write a linear equation for the line.

Answer 1

@Forte11 I suggest you try to answer it first using this formula and then I'll check afterwards. :)

\[m=\frac{ y _{1} - y _{2} }{ x _{1} - x _{2} }\]

Answer 3

Is it -5 over 4?

Answer 4

@Forte11 Yeah! Great job! :)

Answer 5

How do I find out the linear equation for it? and thank you!

Answer 6

That's easy. All you need to do is replace the missing variables in:

y=mx+b

You're most welcome. :)

Answer 7

Thank you SO much!

Answer 8

Anytime. :)

Answer 9

Just checking its 5=m4+b?

Answer 10

5 = \[5=(\frac{ -5 }{ 4 }) 0 + b \]
And then, derive from there. :)

Answer 11

What is B? Do I just leave it as b?

Answer 12

No. You have to find it using the formula I filled for you. B will be equals to 5 in there. :)
