Question

which graph best represents the equation -5x + 2y = 2

Answer 1

i think c

Answer 2

It would be A, not C. You would solve for y, so -5x+2y=2, 2y=5x+2, y=(5/2)x+1. You didn't divide the 2 for the y-intercept by 2 as well to get 1.

i have a couple more would you mind helping?

Answer 6

which equation best represents the line graphed above?
a. y = 1/2 x - 1
b. y = - 1/2 x - 1
c. y = 2x -1
d. y = x + 1

Answer 7

y=mx+b. y-int(b) is -1, so y=mx-1. Slope(m)=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1), so, choosing two random points (0,-1),(2,0), y=(0-(-1))/(2-2)=1/2. Plugging in your values, y=(1/2)x-1, which is a.
