Write the slope intercept form equation of the line given in graph

y = 2/5x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, establish two points. I'll use the intercepts for this problem.

(5, 0), (0, -2)

To find slope, divide change in y by change in x.

Change in y --> 0 - (-2) = 2

Change in x --> 5 - 0 = 5

Slope = 2/5

Next, find intercept.

Plug in slope for one of the points and find how you can make that equal to the y coordinate by adding/subtracting

0 · 2/5 + ? = -2

? = -2

y intercept = -2

Or if the line intercepts the y-axis at a definite point like this graph, just find where it intercepts.

Putting it Together

Now just put this into slope-intercept form which is y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y = 2/5x - 2

-7

step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 18x + 74 = (x + 9)^2 - 81 + 74

= (x + 9)^2 - 7.

so q = -7.

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)
