Calculate the slope of the passing line through each pair of points: (8, 6) and (-1, 6)

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Algebra I

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (8, 6)

Point (-1, 6)

Step 2: Find slope m

Simply plug in the 2 coordinates into the slope formula to find slope m

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18

answer:   b

step-by-step explanation:

x2 = 16

x can not be a negative number because 16 is positive

the only answer would be positive 8
