Algebra.Com's Answer #93395 by checkley71(8403)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Thank you so much for your help . I appreciate your time:)I was wondering if this is also \n" ); document.write( "correct: y=3.5(2)^(x/2) ???? \n" ); document.write( "This is not correct because you have a power (^) factor & a fraction (x/2). \n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------------------------------------------- \n" ); document.write( "(-2,3.5) \n" ); document.write( "(0,7) \n" ); document.write( "(7-3.5)/(-2-0) \n" ); document.write( "3.5/-2 \n" ); document.write( "-1.75 for the slope of this line. \n" ); document.write( "14=2*-1.75+b is the equation with a slope of -1.75 through the points (2,14). \n" ); document.write( "14=-3.5+b \n" ); document.write( "14+3.5=b \n" ); document.write( "b=17.5 the y intercept. \n" ); document.write( "Thus the line equation is: \n" ); document.write( "y=-1.75x+17.5 \n" ); document.write( " |
