Question

Find the value of y so that the line passing through (9, 0) and (3, y) has a slope of QUICK MEDAL

Answer 1

\[\frac{ y_1-y_2 }{ x_1-x_2 }=slope\]

Answer 2

just substitute the given values and then solve:

Answer 3

what is the value of slope? i dont see it.

Answer 4

\[\frac{ 0-y }{ 9-3 }=slope\]

slope if given, so just solve

Answer 5

\[\frac{ 0-y }{ 9-3 } = \frac{ -y }{ 6 }\]

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

what is the value of slope? you haven't written it:

your questions says: Find the value of y so that the line passing through (9, 0) and (3, y) has a slope of QUICK MEDAL

but what is the vlue of slope?

Answer 8

1/2

Answer 9

ok thus we have
\[\frac{ -y }{ 6 }=\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\]

how solve this equation

Answer 10

i meant -1/2

Answer 11

ok

Answer 12

\[\frac{ -y }{ 6 }=-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 13

solve this

Answer 14

i dont know how

Answer 15

you have to multply both sides by 6:
\[\frac{ -y }{ 6 }*6=-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }*6\]
\[-y=-3\]
thus y=3

Answer 16

ooohhhhhhhhhhh okay i see, wow! thanks
