Hello,

y = ax + b where a is the slope

We have A(-4 ; 2) and B(8 ; 5)

a =  \frac{yb - ya}{xb - xa}  =  \frac{5 - ( - 4)}{8 - 2}  =  \frac{9}{6}  =  \frac{3 \times 3}{3 \times 2}  =  \frac{3}{2}

→ Slope : 3/2

What is the equation of the line that passes through (0, -2) and has a slope of 0? NEED HELP ASAP!!
Molodets [167]
The equation is y= -2.
How? If you recall, a linear equation is y= mx+b. The m is the slope (growth) and b is the y-intercept ( where the line crosses the y-axis).

Now since there is no slope or m, the equation would look like this:
y= b or y= 0+b

Next, you want to input the coordinator points (0, -2) into the equation. reminder: (x, y) = x=0 y= -2

y= 0+ -2
y= -2

And there you go! The equation is y= -2. I hope I help you in solving this problem, if not message me, because I'll be glad to help you.

3. At the start of summer, Ben has $250 . He takes a summer
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Week 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Ben has $250 in the beginning.  He saves $150 per week.

y = 150x + 250

Tim has $1,650 in the beginning.  He spends $200 per week.

y = 1650 - 200x

We are trying to find which x-value produces the same y-value for both equations.  You can do this by setting both equations equal to each other.

150x + 250 = 1650 - 200x

(150x + 250) + 200x = (1650 - 200x) + 200x

350x + 250 = 1650

(350x + 250) - 250 = (1650) - 250

350x = 1400

(350x)/350 = (1400)/350

x = 4

By week 4, they will have the same amount of money.

Which equation is true?
ch4aika [34]

Answer : 9x^2 - 25 = (3x - 5)(3x + 5)

(1) 9x^2 - 25 = (3x - 5)(3x - 5)

Use FOIL method to mulitply (3x – 5)(3x – 5)

(3x - 5)(3x - 5)  = 9x^2 - 30x + 25

(2) 9x^2 - 25 = (3x - 5)(3x + 5)

Use FOIL method to mulitply (3x - 5)(3x + 5)

(3x - 5)(3x - 5)  = 9x^2 - 15x + 15x - 25 = 9x^2 - 25

(3) 9x^2 - 25 = -(3x + 5)(3x + 5)

Use FOIL method to mulitply -(3x + 5)(3x + 5)

-(3x + 5)(3x + 5)  = -(9x^2 + 30x + 25) = -9x^2 -30x -25

(4) 9x^2 - 25 = -(3x + 5)(3x - 5)

Use FOIL method to mulitply -(3x + 5)(3x - 5)

-(3x + 5)(3x - 5)  = -(9x^2 - 25) = -9x^2 + 25

So equation 2 is true
