Find the equation of a line given the point and slope below. Arrange your answer in the form y = mx + b, where b is the
constant
(5,5)
m=-3

y = -3x + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

All you need to do is plug the (x,y) coordinates of (5,5) into the slope intercept formula to find the value of b to make the equations. Also, M is the value of the slope which is given to you as the value of -3.

1. The first 5 in the coordinate is the value Y and the second 5 in the coordinate is the value of Y. Substitute these numbers into the formula and solve.

(multiply -3 * 5)

(add 15 to both sides)

(this is the value of b)

2. Now just combine everything to form the equation

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8
