Q. In the equation y=cx−10,c is a constant. If the graph of this equation in the xy-plane passes through the point (1,−3), what is the value of c ?
Substitute coordinates into equation: Step 1: Substitute the coordinates of the point (1,−3) into the equation y=cx−10 to form an equation to solve for c.−3=c(1)−10
Solve for c: Step 2: Solve for c.−3=c−10c=−3+10c=7
