Write a linear function f with the given values. f(6)=-2, f(0)=-5

y = 0.5m - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line can be written as

y = mx + b, with x being the input and y the output

let's plug in our two values.

-2 = m(6) + b

-2 = 6m + b

-5 = 0m + b

-2 = 6m+b

-5 = b

plug -5=b into the first equation

-2 = 6m - 5

add 5 to both sides

3 = 6m

divide both sides by 6

0.5 = m

our function is now

y = 0.5m - 5

answer: what in the world is this

step-by-step explanation:

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
