If you follow my link, click on the very first link in the search and read the article, you will never ask a similar question.

Answer 3

formula : slope (m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
set 1 (0,-4)......set 2 (-2,5)
m = (5 - (-4) / (-2 - 0)
m = (5 + 4) / -2
m = 9/-2 or - 9/2 (- nine halves)
Any questions ?

Answer 4

thanks :)

Answer 5

help with another?

Answer 6

possibly...math is not my best subject, but let me see what you have

Answer 7

You should not provide answers to people who are not willing to put in the effort themselves. He will not learn by copying down your working out without understanding anything.

Answer 8

your right...my bad

Answer 9

I sometimes like to give people a little break....homework sucks

Answer 10

you got another problem @JOshua_Lewis

Answer 11

well @Bad2zBone im on a 500 question test and only havent done not even a portion. i have been up all freaking night doing the test. So excuse me if i would like some help. and i have to pass this if i wanna go on my mission trip to africa

Answer 12

@terenzreignz if you dont mind then yes :)

Answer 13

Is you are that bothered about just 'passing the test' without actually having the knowledge to pass the test, pay some money, i could get you at least 95% on this test.

Answer 14

and you are talking to me about giving answers....lol

Answer 15

ikr! lol

Answer 16

pay some money my ***

Answer 17

Consider the line that passes through the points (-5, 9) and (-2, 0). Below are two different equations. Identify the true statement concerning both equations.
Equation #1 Equation #2
y - 9 = -1 third(x + 5) y - 9 = -3(x + 5)

Only equation #1 represents the line that passes through the two given points.

Only equation #2 represents the line that passes through the two given points.

Both equation #1 and equation #2 represent the line that passes through the two given points.

Neither equation #1 nor equation #2 represents the line that passes through the two given points.

Answer 18

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
set 1 (-5,9).....set 2 (-2,0)
m = (0 - 9) / (-2 - (-5)
m = (-9)/3
m = - 3

y = mx + b using points (-5,9)
9 = -3(-5) + b
9 = 15 + b
9 - 15 = b
- 6 = b

y = -3x -6

I think the answer is the last one....neither one represent the line that passes through the two given points

Answer 19

Choose the slope-intercept equation of the line that passes through the point (4, -6) and is parallel to y = -one halfx + 5.

y = -2x + 2

y = 2x - 14

y = one halfx - 8

y = -one halfx - 4

Answer 20

y = - 1/2x + b
now sub points (4,-6) in
-6 = -1/2 (4) + b
-6 = -2 + b
-6 + 2 = b
-4 = b

y = - 1/2x - 4 <-- answer

Answer 21

Choose the equation below that represents the line that passes through the point (2, 4) and has a slope of 3.

y - 4 = 3(x - 2)

y - 2 = 3(x - 4)

y + 4 = 3(x + 2)

y + 2 = 3(x + 4)

Answer 22

y - y1 = m(x - x1).....slope(m) = 3....points (2,4)
y - 4 = 3(x - 2)

Answer 23

Choose the equation of the vertical line that passes through the point (-2, -1).

x = -2

y = -1

y = -2

x = -1

Answer 24

im sorry im not to good at algebra :/

Answer 25

x = -2

Answer 26

Which of the following equations is written in slope-intercept form?

2x + 4y = 8

4y = -2x + 8

y = -one halfx + 2

x = -2y + 4

Answer 27

the slope intercept form is y = mx + b. You can probably do this one. Keep in mind, y has to be by itself no numbers attached to it. So what do you think the answer is ?

Answer 28

umm

Answer 29

c?

Answer 30

you got it...very good

Answer 31

I am sorry, but I got to go now.....good luck with the rest. I hope you get to go to Africa. Watch out for the lions

Answer 32

lolol thnaks :)
