A line slope -5\3 through which two points could this line pass

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Is that all you are given? .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes that's all

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Okay. Well, I am going to go about this in the way I think fits best, considering this is all the more information we are given.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

\[y=mx+b\] Do you know this formula?

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

That is the formula for slope-intercept form. (Not to rush, I only have 10 minutes before I leave for a meeting)

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Where m=slope and b=y-intercept.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Since we only know 'm', we still substitute that in.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

These are the choices I have (12,13)(17,10). (16,15) (13,10) (0,7) (3,10) (11,13) (13,18)

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

\[y=-\frac{ 5 }{ 3 }x+b\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hi :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

need some help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hi

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

Here is your graph.

OpenStudy (maddy1251):

@atreyu6s3x6 I have to go, you can help. :-) I will medal you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

easiest way would be to find the slope of each pair :D and sure @Maddy1251

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or use the graph lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't have a graft in is a question with 4 a swers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so do you know how to find slope with two points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just can't seem to get algebra

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No I don't this is hard for me and I am doing online school

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its okay :) well get through this, so to find slope we use: y2-y1/ x2-x1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am trying to figure this out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay so each point is an ordered pair so one point is (x1,y1) and the other is (x2,y2), understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes thank you so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem :)
