Complete the equation of the line through (-9,7) & (-6,-3)

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the points

(-9,7) and (-6,-3)

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

substitute the values

step 2

Find the equation in point slope form

we have

substitute

 ---> equation in point slope form

step 3

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

we have

Isolate the variable y

Distribute right side

subtract 3 both sides

starting with:    

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7   

5 + x - 12 - x = 2x - 7 - x (subtract x from both sides)   

5 - 12 = x - 7 (combine and cancel x's from both sides)   

5 - 12 + 7 = x - 7 + 7 (add 7 to both sides)   

0 = x (add numbers together on both sides)       

so in order for the equation to be true, x must be 0.   

trying x = -0.5   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = 2(-0.5) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + -0.5 - 12 = -1 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7.5 = -8 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7.5 is obviously not equal to -8, the value of -0.5 for x is wrong.   

trying x = 0   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 2(0) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 0 - 12 = 0 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-7 = -7 (did addition on both sides)       

since -7 equals -7, that demonstrates that the value of 0 for x is correct.   

trying x = 1   

5 + x - 12 = 2x - 7 (original equation)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2(1) - 7 (plug in value of x)   

5 + 1 - 12 = 2 - 7 (did multiplication)   

-6 = -5 (did addition on both sides)       

since -6 is obviously not equal to -5, the value of 1 for x is wrong.

it can be to see completed examples before writing, in order to examine what makes for an effective piece. see how these intros give some context before posing the topic and lead naturally into the body paragraphs, where the evidence will be listed. you can imagine how the author has organized the rest of the piece.

"we buried my cousin last summer. he was 32 when he hanged himself from a closet coat rack in the throes of alcoholism, the fourth of my blood relatives to die prematurely from this deadly disease. if america issued drinking licenses, those four men—including my father, who died at 54 of liver failure—might be alive today. that is a good example piece   some steps that are .

. writing something that happened to you

.read a book you like to get ideas from there

. lastly you can make a venn diagram

hope this plz make brainliest
