( 1 point) What is the x-intercept of the line that passes through (18,5) and (9,9) ?
Added by Justin C.
Step 1
Step 1: Find the slope of the line using the formula: slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) Given points: (18,5) and (9,9) x1 = 18, y1 = 5 x2 = 9, y2 = 9 slope = (9 - 5) / (9 - 18) = 4 / -9 = -4/9 Show more…
