Write the equation for a line that has a rate of change of -3 and passes through the point (3, -5).

The slope-intercept form:

m - slope (a rate of change)

b - y-intercept

We have the slope

and point (3, -5). Substitute:

     add 9 to both sides

"standard form:

3x2 + 14x − 10 = 0

solutions based on quadratic formula:

x1   = −14 − √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 − 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ −5.296

x2   = −14 + √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 + 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ 0.629

the ratios are reciprocals im positive

step-by-step explanation:

they are all positive numbers so it wouldn't be the other ones
