Write an equation for the line that gose through the points (-2,6) and (2, 12)

y = x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 6 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (2, 12 )

m = = = = , then

y = x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation.

Using (2, 12 ) , then

12 = 3 + c ⇒ c = 12 - 3 = 9

y = x + 9 ← equation of line

1. x> -5

2. x< 8

step-by-step explanation:

1. 2x> -10

divide by 2 from both sides of equation.

2x/2> -10/2

simplify, to find the answer.

-10/2=-5

x> -5 is the correct answer.

2. 3x< 24

divide by 3 from both sides of equation.

3x/3< 24/3

simplify, to find the answer.

24/3=8

x< 8 is the correct answer.

i hope this you, and have a wonderful day!
