The true statement about Sam’s conjecture is that the conjecture is not correct
<h3>How to determine if Sam’s conjecture is correct or not?</h3>
Sam’s conjecture is given as:
For x ≤ - 2
It is true that x^5 + 7 > x^3.
The inequality x ≤ - 2 means that the highest value of x is -2
Assume the value of x is -2, then we have:
(-2)^5 + 7 > (-2)^3
Evaluate the exponents
-32 + 7 > -8
Evaluate the sum
-25 > -8
The above inequality is false because -8 is greater than -25 i.e. -8 > -25 or -25 < -8
Hence, the true statement about Sam’s conjecture is that the conjecture is not correct

Answer:
y = -5x + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
General equation of a line : y = mx + c......where c is intercept
To find m pick any two points..
(-2, 16) and (-1, 11)
Using (y - y¹) / (x - x¹)
(11 - 16) / (-1 - [-2]) = -5 / 1
= -5
To find c sub with any point for (x, y) and m
using (2, -4)
y = mx + c
-4 = -5(2) + c
-4 = -10 + c
6 = c
Input the values of m and c in the general equation without x and y
; y = -5x + 6
