Write the equation of the line that passes through the given points (0,-1) and (-5,-7) simplify your answer

y = 6/5 x-1  slope intercept form

6x-5y = 5  standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the points  (0,-1) and (-5,-7)

We can find the slope using

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

 = (-7--1)/(-5-0)

 = (-7+1)/(-5-0)

 = -6/-5

 = 6/5

We also have the y intercept ( when x=0)  It is -1

We can use the slope intercept form of the equation y = mx+b

y = 6/5 x-1

Depending on what you mean when you say simplify your answer

We can put it in standard form  ax+by = C

Multiply both sides by 5

5y =5* 6/5 x-1*5

5y = 6x-5

Subtract 6x from each side

-6x+5y = 6x-6x-5

-6x+5y = -5

Multiply by -1

6x-5y = 5

answer: the answer is one of

step-by-step explanation:   we are given to write a proper fraction where the whole is divided into an even number of equal parts less than ten, and an odd number of those parts exist.

an even number less than 10 may be one of 2, 4, 6 or 8. so, the whole may be one of these four evens.

now, an odd number of these parts must exist, so the numerator must be an odd number, one of 1, 3, 5 or 7. it cannot be 9 because then the fraction will become improper.

thus, our fraction may be one of the following
