The equation of the line from give points is y = 2/3x - 5/3.

According to the statement

We have given that the two points which are (-2,-3) and (4,1)

And we have to find the equation of a line that passes through the given points.

So,For this purpose,

First, we need to determine the slope of the line. The slope can be found by using the formula:

m = \frac{(y_2) -(y_1)}{(x_2) -(x_1)}

Where

m is the slope and

Substituting the values from the points in the problem gives:

m = 1 + 3 /4 + 2

m = 4/6

m = 2/3.

And then

Now, we can use the point-slope formula to find an equation for the line. The point-slope formula states:

y - (y_1) = m(x -x_1)

Put the values in it then

y - (-3) = 2/3 (x-(-2))

y +3 = 2/3 (x +2)

3y + 9 = 2x + 4

3y - 2x = 4 -9

3y -2x = -5

3y = 2x - 5

y = 2/3x - 5/3.

So, The equation of the line from give points is y = 2/3x - 5/3.

Which number in the monomial 125x^18y^3z^25 needs to be changed to make it a perfect cube
Oksana_A [137]

Hi,

You just have to change z^25 to z^24 or z^27.

125x^{18}y^3z^{24}=(5x^6*y*z^8)^3

Is x=-2 a positive slope
victus00 [196]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -2 represents a vertical line that intersects the x axis at the point (-2, 0). Since the line is vertical, the slope is undefined making it not have a positive slope.

Best of Luck!

Simplify the answer as much as possible​
RSB [31]

Answer:

f(-5)=240

g(-7)=-33

Step-by-step explanation:

1) f(x)=3x^2 - 3x

f(-5)= 3×(-5)^2 - 3×(-5) = -15^2 + 15= 225 + 15=240

2) g(x)=5x + 2

g(-7)= 5×(-7) + 2= -35+2=-33
