Find an equation for the line below in y=mx+b

y = -1/2x - 11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using slope intercept form y = mx + b, to determine the equation, first count the rise(vertical or change in y), and run(horizontal or change in x) of the line.

m is the slope, b is the y-intercept which will remain when x is 0 as this will cancel out the m.

Be careful when determining the slope, and pay attention to the steps(count) of the x, and y axis.

As this graph measures a line with a negative slope passing through the y axis at -5 1/2 → -11/2, with a step of 1, we can count the squares normally to determine the slope.

So since we know that this line has two obvious points (-5,-3) and (1,-6) we can use the equation for slope to measure it's steepness.

m = y2-y1/x2-x1

with (x1,y1) being the first point, and (x2,y2) being the second point.

So: (negative minus a negative makes a positive)

m = -6-(-3)/1-(-5) = -6 + 3/ 1 + 5 = -3/6 = -1/2.

Since m = -1/2, and b = -11/2, the line must be y = -1/2x - 11/2.

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
