Slope=-2 and it passes through the point (5,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b where: m= the slope = -5/6

1   ∙y=mx+b.

2  here m=5.

3  ⇒y=5x+b←is the partial equation.

4  9=5+b⇒b=9−5=4.

5  ⇒y=5x+4←is the equation of the line

How to Find the Equation of a Line from Two Points

Find the slope using the slope formula. ...

Use the slope and one of the points to solve for the y-intercept (b). ...

Once you know the value for m and the value for b, you can plug these into the slope-intercept form of a line (y = mx + b) to get the equation for the line.

=====================================

explanation

the graph has a slope of 1/3 because each time you move up 1, you go to the right 3. so, slope = rise/run = 1/3. we can cross choice a off the list since we want a slope of 3, rather than 1/3.

the first table shown has a slope of -3. this is because the rise is -6 and the run is 2, so slope = rise/run = -6/2 = -3. note how x increases by 2 each time (run) and y drops by 6 each time (rise). choice b can be eliminated.

the second table has a slope of 3. each time x goes up by 1, the y values increase by 3. slope = rise/run = 3/1 = 3. alternatively you can use the slope formula to prove that the slope is 3 here. use any two rows of values to generate the two points. choice c is one of the answers

the third table also has a slope of 3. let's use the slope formula to prove as such. i'm going to use the first two rows of the table. so i'll use the two points (2,1) and (5,10)

m = slope

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

m = (10-1)/(5-2)

m = 9/3

m = 3 so we get a slope of 3

choice d is the other answer
