What is the equation of the graphed line? Hint: determine the slope

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wheres the line ?

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

the slope has to be negative because the line goes down

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

Ok, so same thing as before. Use the slope formula, and find the y intercept.

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

\[\frac{ y2-y1 }{ x2-x1 }\]

OpenStudy (daniellelovee):

rise over run

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

You can use -1,5 0,0

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

is it _5/1 or the other way around

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right one, down five \(-\frac{5}{1}=-5\)

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

If _ is a negative sign, then correct

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):

yeah it was. where did you get the 5 and the 1 from?

OpenStudy (dtan5457):

You calculated it yourself, lol

OpenStudy (chunkymonkay):
