Find the slope and y-intercept of the line through the pair of points L(-9,6),M(-1,9)

The slope is 3/8

The y intercept is 75/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is found by

m= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (9-6)/(-1- -9)

   = (9-6)/(-1+9)

    =3/8

The y intercept is found by

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 3/8 x+b

9 = 3/8(-1) +b

Getting a common denominator

72/8 = -3/8 +b

Add 3/8 to each side

75/8 = b

The y intercept is 75/8

3/8, 9 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

y= mx+b

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

L (-9, 6) and M(-1, 9)

slope is:

y- intercept is:

n=9

step-by-step explanation:

7 times a number = 7n

decreased by 13 = 7n-13

same as is =

5 times the number = 5n

increased by 5 = 5n+5

7n-13 = 5n+5

2n=18

n=9
