Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is given by

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

-3/10 = (-5--8)/(-5-x)

-3/10 = (-5+8)/(-5-x)

Using cross multiplication

-3 (-5-x) = 10*(-5+8)

Simplify

-3(-5-x) =10(3)

Divide by -3

-3/-3(-5-x) =10(3)/-3

-5-x = -10

Add 5 to each side

-5-x+5 = -10+5

-x=-5

Divide by -1

x=5

Write an equation to represent function A
maw [93]

Answer:

y = 312x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

According to y = mx + b, m stands for slope and b stands for y-intercept. Let us find the y-intercept. To find the y-intercept, the x should be zero in (x, y).

(x, y)

(0, 2) ---> y-intercept (b)

Now that we have found the y-intercept, we will now find the slope by using its formula.

Slope formula:-

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Pick two random (x, y). I will pick the first and last pairs.

(0, 2) and (4, 1250)

Now plug these two pairs in the formula.

m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

m = 1250 - 2 / 4 - 0

m = 1248 / 4

m = 312

This means that the slope (m) is 312. Now put that in y = mx + b form.

y = mx + b

y = 312x + 2

Both of the forms are the same. Hope this helps, thank you :) !!

Solve for x.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

x=-\frac{9}{4} \\ or \:\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

-2 (x + 1/4)+1=5\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1=5\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}1\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)+1-1=5-1\\\\Simplify\\-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)=4\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-2\\\frac{-2\left(x+\frac{1}{4}\right)}{-2}=\frac{4}{-2}\\\\Simplify\\x+\frac{1}{4}=-2\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}\frac{1}{4}\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\x+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=-2-\frac{1}{4}\\\\Simplify\\x=-\frac{9}{4}\\\\x = -2\frac{1}{4}
