Find an equation for the line below

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

1) Determine the slope (m)

where two given points are and

In the graph, two points are indicated: (-5,5) and (3,3). Plug these into the equation:

Therefore, the slope of the line is . Plug this into  :

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

Plug in one of the points we used earlier and solve for b:

Therefore, is the y-intercept. Plug this back into :

I hope this helps!

b

step-by-step explanation:

given

- 2 (3x + 12y - 5 - 17x - 16y + 4 )

simplify the parenthesis by collecting like terms

= - 2 (- 14x - 4y - 1) ← distribute the parenthesis by - 2

= 28x + 8y + 2 → b

i believe that the answer is

b. y-1=-2(x-4)

hope this !
