Question

PLEASE HELP ME!! 15 POINTS!! examine the following table, which represents some points on a line. x | 3, 0, -3, -6, -9 y | -3, -2, -1, 0, 1 What is the equation for the line in slope-intercept form? a. y= -1/3x - 2 b. y= -1/3x - 6 c. y= -3x - 2 d. y= -3x - 6 e. y= 3x - 2

Answer 1

Answer:

A (y = -1/3x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

                            y^2 - y^1         1 - 0           1              1

Slope Form:       -------------  =  ----------  =  -------  =  ---------

                            x^2 - x^1       -9 - (-6)     -9 + 6        -3

Intercept:  

              x | y

              -------

              3 | -3

              0 | -2 ( y - intercept is when x is 0)

             -3 | -1

             -6 | 0

             -9 | 1

y = - 1/3 x - 2
