Question

Select the equation that corresponds with the given graph
I will draw the graph below
Two points of the line are zero comma five and negative five comma six.

y = -5x + 5

y equals negative 1 over 5 times x + 5

y equals 1 over 5 times x + 5

y = 5x + 5

Answer 1

^ the graph.

Answer 2

what is y at x=0 and x=-5?

Answer 3

Y= -5?

Answer 4

You already have this info in your question:
y(0)=5,y(-5)=6

Answer 5

Ohhh, I feel silly.

Answer 6

I also didn't see that.

So, we can use \( \dfrac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2-x_1}= m \) to solve this problem:

\( \dfrac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2-x_1}= \dfrac{5 -6}{0-(-5)}=\dfrac{-1}{5} \)

Then we need to use y=mx + b to find b.
We know at y(0) = 5 which gives us b.
We now have everything we need:
$$y = \dfrac{-1}{5}x + 5$$
