Algebra.Com's Answer #250490 by tjhd(7)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! I'm not sure this is what you're looking for but....\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "45 = x1 \n" ); document.write( "2 = x2\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0 = y1 \n" ); document.write( "50 = y2 \n" ); document.write( ".............\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "subtract them (x1 - x2) and (y1 - y2)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "45 - 2 = 43 \n" ); document.write( "0 - 50 = -50 \n" ); document.write( "then put them like... x/y (x over y)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "that is the X(so you get -43/50x.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Take one of the points (either (45,0) or (2,50) and put them into y=mx+b formula...\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y= -43/50 (2) + 2 \n" ); document.write( "y = .28... then you put that into the formula as this... and your answer is...\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y = -43/50x + .28\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "I'm sorry if this is not the answer you're looking for, but I tried to help :) \n" ); document.write( " |
