First, let's calculate the slope using the formula:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
Given points: (1, 4) and (-3, t)
Plugging in the values:
3 = (t - 4) / (-3 - 1)
3 = (t - 4) / -4
Now, isolate t by multiplying by -4 on both sides:
3 * -4 = t - 4
-12 = t - 4
Now, add 4 to both sides to get t:
t = -12 + 4
t = -8
Therefore, the value of t is -8.
A line passing through the points (1, 4) (-3, t)
has a slope equal to 3.
Find the value of t
Enter each line of work as an equation.
