Which of the following represents an equation in standard form for the line that passes through (3, −1) and (−5, −3).

Respuesta :

Answer:

  • y = ¼x + (-7/4)

Step-by-step explanation:

find the gradient ( M)

M = y2- y1 ÷ x2-x1

M= -3 - (-1)÷(-5)-3 = ¼

the

find C in the equation (y=mx+c)

C = y-mx ( C = -1-¼(3)= -7/4

(use in y and x values provided)

now replace the values you find in the equation (y=Mx+C)

final answer is

y = ¼x+(-7/4)

Answer:

y = ¼x + (-7/4)
