Answer:
y + 1 = 3(x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = 3 and (a, b) = (- 8, - 1) , thus
y - (- 1) = 3(x - (- 8)), that is
y + 1 = 3(x + 8)
B is correct.
A. 5(x-2)= 5x-10
B. 4(x+3)= 4x + 12
C. 3(x+1)= 3x+3
D. 2(x+7) = 2x + 14
Yes you are correct. You divide both sides by -6 to isolate x. Dividing both sides by a negative number will flip the inequality sign.
If you need to graph this, then you'll have a closed circle at -12 on the number line. Then you'll have shading to the left of this closed circle. The closed circle indicates "include this endpoint as part of the shaded solution set".
