Two points on this line are (8,0) and (0,-2).  The slope is thus

         0-(-2)
m = ---------- = 1/4
         8-0

The equation of the line is then y-0 = (1/4)(x-8), or y = (1/4)X - 2 (in slope-intercept form).

Mark and ann together were allocated n boxes of cookies to sell for a club project. mark sold 10 boxes less than n and ann sold
Lady bird [3.3K]
<span>n = 11<span>.

Explanation:
Let m be the number of boxes Mark sells and a be the number of boxes Ann sells.

Since Mark sells 10 less than n, m = n-10. Since Ann sells 2 less than n, a = n-2.

Together, they sold n-10+n-2=2n-12 boxes.

We know that they sold less than n boxes, so our inequality would be
2n-12<n.

To solve this, subtract n from both sides:
2n-12-n<n-n; n-12<0.

Add 12 to both sides:
n-12+12<0+12; n<12.

This means there were less than 12 boxes. The next number down is 11; this woks because Mark sold 10 less than n; 11-10=1. Mark sold at least 1 box.

If n=10, however, 10-10=0; this doesn't work, because Mark did sell at least 1 box.  </span></span>

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 9 + 53 = 180 (collect like terms)

8x + 44 = 180 (subtract 44 on both sides)

8x = 136 (divide by 8 on each side)

x = 17

HOpe this helps!!

A line goes through the points (4, 5) and (2,-6). Write the equation of the line in slope-intercept
kompoz [17]

Answer: 11/2x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope.

I learned this doing the y2-y1 method.

Do -6 - 5 which equals -11

And 2 - 4 = -2

This makes -11/-2 = 11/2

Then if you you were to graph,, find two points which should give you -17.
