Answer 2

@amistre64 @ash2326

Answer 3

I worked it out to this point but can't figure out what to do next

Answer 4

y=mx+c
take any one point and the slope
\[\frac{ 7 }{8 }=\frac{ y-0 }{ x--6 }\]
\[\frac{ 7 }{8 }=\frac{ y }{ x+6 }\]
cross multiply
\[7(x+6)=8y\]
simplify and arrange in the form of y=mx+c

Answer 5

where did you reach in your working...we can try work from where you got stuck

Answer 6

I found the slope and was stuck

Answer 7

oh, ok...have you understood what i have done?

Answer 8

Am I correct in saying that I can just simplify your final equation above for the answer?

Answer 9

definately,that is what you should do :)
i have left you to do the rest lol

Answer 10

its ok thx so much I just started pre calc and am still learning how to do some stuff I am not usually like this with math but I guess after this past summer I need to get myself back in a groove

Answer 11

lol...no worries

Answer 12

thx so much if you ever find you need help witch I doubt but if you ever do mention me and I will see what I can do

Answer 13

hahaha lol!! i do need help sometimes and i will mention you..soon!! so better get yourself back in a groove lol

Answer 14

yeah I will

Answer 15

@Mokeira

Answer 16

the final product of your equation is not in my answers

Answer 17

what are the answers?

Answer 18

–7x + 8y = 42
–7x – 8y = 42
–7x + 8y = –42
8x + 7y = 42

Answer 19

what did you get when you simplified....

the answer is among the choices

Answer 20

7x+42=8x

Answer 21

\[7(x+6)=8y\]
\[7x+42=8y\]
take 7x to the other side
\[42=8y-7x\]
which is same as
\[-7x+8y=42 \]

Answer 22

oh ok thx s much for coming back and helping me

Answer 23

u elcome :)
