Question

Please help! i need this ASAP!

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

First find the slope (change in y/ change in x) which is positive 7/9.

Then use y=mx+b and plug in the slope, and one of the given points to solve for b.

5= 7/9*4+b

5=28/9+b

5-28/9=b

45/9-28/9=b

17/9=b

Then with the slope and y intercept(b) you get the equation shown in answer c.

Hope that helps!

Answer 2

C. y=7/9x+17/9

Explanation:

Take the slope. slope= m = y2-y1/x2-x1

=5-(-2)/4-(-5)

=7/9

Then put it into point-slope form.

y-y1=m(x-x1)

=y-5=7/9(x-4)

Simplify.

y=7/9x-28/9+5

y=7/9x+17/9
