y=(1312)x−(192)
y equals left parenthesis Start Fraction 13 over 12 End Fraction right parenthesis x minus Start Fraction 19 over 2 End Fraction right parenthesis

y=−192
y equals Start Fraction negative 19 over 2 End Fraction

y=(1213)x−(11113)
y equals left parenthesis Start Fraction 12 over 13 End Fraction right parenthesis x minus Start Fraction 111 over 13 End Fraction right parenthesis

y=(−1312)x+(72)

Answer 1

y = (13/12)x − 19/2

Slope m = (10 − (−3)) / (18 − 6) = 13/12. Using 10 = (13/12)(18) + b gives b = 10 − 39/2 = −19/2.
