Find the value of m so that the line y = mx - 5 will pass through the point (-2,3).

Step-by-step explanation:

b/c there is a -5 we know that the line will pass through point (0,-5)  and we also want the line to pass through (-2,3) so use those two points to find the slope

m = 3-(-5) / -2 -0

m = 3+5 / -2

m =  -8/2

m = -4

part a

x     y

0     8

1     7.5

2     7

3     6.5

4     6

5     5.5  

for every hour i deducted .5 inches from the length of the candle

part b

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value

x       y

0       8

1       7.6

2       7.2

3       6.8
