Answer:

Slope: [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

Y-intercept: -3

Equation: [tex]y=\frac{3}{5} x-3[/tex]

Graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find your slope using two points, use the slope formula.

[tex]\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} \\[/tex]

Your y1 is -6, your y2 is 3.

Your x1 is -5, your x2 is 10.

[tex]\frac{3-(-6)}{10-(-5)} \\\\\frac{9}{15} \\\\\frac{3}{5} \\[/tex]

Now that you have your slope, use it and one of your points in point-slope form to find your y-intercept.

[tex]y-y1=m(x-x1)\\y-3=\frac{3}{5} (x-10)\\y-3=\frac{3}{5} x-6\\y=\frac{3}{5} x-3[/tex]

Answer:

A. In the graph,

Go 5 units left side from the origin in the x-axis then from that point go downward 6 unit, we will get (-5, -6),

Now, go 10 unit right from the origin in the x-axis then from that point go upward 3 unit, we will get (10, 3),

B. The slope of the line passes through (-5, -6) and (10, 3),

[tex]m=\frac{3-(-6)}{10-(-5)}=\frac{3+6}{10+5}=\frac{9}{15}=\frac{3}{5}[/tex]

C. Since, the equation of a line passes through [tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] with slope m is,

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Thus, the equation of the line is,

[tex]y+6=\frac{3}{5}(x+5)----(1)[/tex]

For y-intercept,

x = 0,

[tex]y+6 = \frac{3}{5}(0+5)\implies y = 3-6=-3[/tex]

That is, y-intercept is -3.

D. From equation (1),

[tex]5y + 30 = 3x + 15[/tex]

[tex]\implies 3x - 5y = 15[/tex]

Which is the required linear function.
