Question 422079: I am currently working on the Question "Consider the following equation of a line, rewrite this equation in slope intercept form. Reduce all factors to lowest terms." I can work the whole problem all the way to the end and then I can't figure out where one number is coming from. This is a two part problem. I will only list the one I can't figure out. The numbers are (3,13) seek 3/7. Steps are y-(-13)=3/7(x-(3)) second step y+13=3/7x-9/7 third step y=3/7x-9/7-13 fourth and last step y=3/7x-100/7. I can not figure out how they get 100 for the answer. Hope you can help. Amy Answer by jim_thompson5910(35256) (Show Source):
