Write an equation of a line thru (3,-1) and (-1,-7)

-1 - (-7) over 3 - (-1) = M

-1 + 7 over 3 + 1 = M

6 over 4 = M

6/4 = M

3/2 = M

Slope form M=y2-y1/x2-x2 M= -7 -(-1)/-1-3 M= -6/-4 M=3/2  So 3/2 is your slope   Now  use one if the pair points (3,-1) and slope to find b. -1=2/3(3)+b -1=2+b -1-2=b -3=b  Y=2/3x-3

the answer is b.

step-by-step explanation:

identity property is where 0+whatever number=whatever number. basically 0+ a number.

56.6

step-by-step explanation:

the ratio of the perimeters is equal to the scale.

the ratio of the areas is equal to the square of the scale.

34 / 20 = k

a / 19.6 = k²

substituting:

a / 19.6 = (34 / 20)²

a = 19.6 (34 / 20)²

a ≈ 56.6
