\huge\boxed{\text{B}}

Slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

In this case, we need to look for the equation with m=-2.

The only equation with a slope of -2 is \boxed{y=-2x+(-1)}.

y= mx+b

slope is also m

b= y-intercept

Answer: b. y = -2x +-1

ZanzabumX [31]

ANSWER

12 \sqrt{5}

EXPLANATION

The given expression is

\sqrt{2}  \times  \sqrt{72}  \times  \sqrt{5}

The middle radical contains a perfect square.

\sqrt{2}  \times  \sqrt{36 \times 2}  \times  \sqrt{5}

\sqrt{2}  \times  \sqrt{36}   \times  \sqrt{2} \times  \sqrt{5}

6\sqrt{2}  \times  \sqrt{2} \times  \sqrt{5}

Note that:

\sqrt{a}  \times  \sqrt{a}  = a

6\times 2 \sqrt{5}  = 12 \sqrt{5}

Solve the system by using a matrix equation.<br> --4x - 5y = -5<br> -6x - 8y = -2
evablogger [386]

Answer:

Solution : (15, - 11)

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve this problem using a matrix, so it would be wise to apply Gaussian elimination. Doing so we can start by writing out the matrix of the coefficients, and the solutions ( - 5 and - 2 ) --- ( 1 )

\begin{bmatrix}-4&-5&|&-5\\ -6&-8&|&-2\end{bmatrix}

Now let's begin by canceling the leading coefficient in each row, reaching row echelon form, as we desire --- ( 2 )

Row Echelon Form :

\begin{pmatrix}1\:&\:\cdots \:&\:b\:\\ 0\:&\ddots \:&\:\vdots \\ 0\:&\:0\:&\:1\end{pmatrix}

Step # 1 : Swap the first and second matrix rows,

\begin{pmatrix}-6&-8&-2\\ -4&-5&-5\end{pmatrix}

Step # 2 : Cancel leading coefficient in row 2 through R_2\:\leftarrow \:R_2-\frac{2}{3}\cdot \:R_1,

\begin{pmatrix}-6&-8&-2\\ 0&\frac{1}{3}&-\frac{11}{3}\end{pmatrix}

Now we can continue canceling the leading coefficient in each row, and finally reach the following matrix.

\begin{bmatrix}1&0&|&15\\ 0&1&|&-11\end{bmatrix}

As you can see our solution is x = 15, y = - 11 or (15, - 11).
