document.write( "Question 547502: hello and thank you this is the problem \"write an equation in a standard form the passes through (-3,-5) and (4,5) if you could show the work that would be great
\n" ); document.write( "and 1 more it is write an equation in slope-intercept form for (0,-3),(1,1)
\n" ); document.write( "

m = slope = change in y / change in x
\n" ); document.write( "change in y = -5-5 = -10
\n" ); document.write( "change in x = -3-4 = -7
\n" ); document.write( "m = -10/-7 = 10/7
\n" ); document.write( "y = 10/7*x + b
\n" ); document.write( "Use (4,5) to find 'b'.
\n" ); document.write( "5 = 10/7*4 + b
\n" ); document.write( "5 -40/7 = b
\n" ); document.write( "b = -5/7
\n" ); document.write( "y = 10/7*x -5/7
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both sides by 7 to eliminate fractions
\n" ); document.write( "7y = 10x -5
\n" ); document.write( "-10x +7y = -5
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "m = -3-1 / 0-1 = -4/-1 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "y = 4x + b
\n" ); document.write( "Use (0,-3) to find 'b'.
\n" ); document.write( "-3 = 4*0 + b
\n" ); document.write( "b= -3
\n" ); document.write( "y = 4x -3
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Done.
\n" ); document.write( "
