Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{g =  - 2}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find g we have to use the formula for finding the slope of the line passing through two points that's

m =  \frac{y_2 -y_ 1}{x_2 -x_1 }  \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are (g, -1) and (2, 5) and m = 3/2

We substitute it into the equation and find g

That's

\frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{5 -  - 1}{2 - g}  \\  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{5 + 1}{2 - g }  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{6}{2 - g}  \\  \\ 3(2 - g) = 6(2) \\ 6 - 3g = 12 \\  - 3g = 12 - 6 \\  - 3g = 6 \\  \\  \frac{ - 3g}{ - 3}  =  \frac{6}{ - 3}  \\  \\ g =  - 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>g = - 2</h3>

Hope this helps you

Evaluate 1/3 m- 1- 1/2 n when m=21 and n=12
liq [111]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to identify 1/3 m. We know that m is 21 and 1/3 of 21 is 7.

Then we find 1/2 on n which we know is 12 so 1/2 of 12 is 6.

Then we subtract. 7-1 is 6 and 6-6 is 0

Hope this helped!!! :D
