Question

Use the given conditions to write an equation for the line in point-slope form.
Passing through (-5, -7) and (-8, -6)

A. y - 7 = -1/3 (x - 5) or y - 6 = -1/3 (x - 8)
B. y + 7 = -1/3 (x + 5) or y + 6 = -1/3 (x + 8)
C. y + 7 = -1/3 x - 5 or y + 6 = -1/3 x + 7

Answer 2

is it C

Answer 3

I C U

Answer 4

I see you :), well so much for that, well dunno, get 'm' first :)

Answer 5

what's the 'm', or the slope, from the graphic

Answer 6

o I know it meant I see you

Answer 7

well, from the formula in the graphic, how WOULD you get 'm'?

Answer 8

by dividing

Answer 9

yes, as shown there :), so, there, what would you get?

Answer 10

m=B?

Answer 11

I think is supposed to have a number value :)

Answer 12

no im saying that the answer is B

Answer 13

ok, how did you get that? by rolling a dice?

Answer 14

of course

Answer 15

so, is that what's expected? hehe

Answer 16

get the slope, or 'm' from the graphic, and then we can take it from there :)

Answer 17

I'll answer that but just let me know if B is correct or not

Answer 18

we never know that, that's the idea of the test, to write the equation, once you have the equation, you'll know which is what

Answer 19

I mean, otherwise I'm sure you're teacher would have said, "ok fellas, here's the test, make sure you use an 8-ball and shake it, if not a couple of dice will do"

Answer 20

o man I have to go for sec...thanks for the help tho
