Question

How do you solve this?

Answer 1

we are given x here, so we already know that our first coordinate is equal to -2.

in order to find the next coordinate, we have to substitute x for -2 in the y=mx+b equation.

the equation is

`y = (2)/(3) x + 23`

so in substituting x for -2 we get

`y = (2)/(3) ( - 2) + 23`

all we need to do is multiply ⅔ by -2, which gives us -1,3333.

we now have

`y = - 1.3333 + 3`

so we add them together and get :

`y = 1.666666`

hope this helps!!<3
