Answer:

y=-5x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

we have

the points (−1,12) and (1,2)

substitute

m=\frac{2-12}{1+1}

m=\frac{-10}{2}

m=-5

step 2

we know that

The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equl to

y=mx+b

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

m=-5

point\ (1,2)

substitute in the linear equation and solve for b

2=-5(1)+b

b=2+5=7

therefore

y=-5x+7

Nat2105 [25]

Answer: 2a^5+5b

Step-by-step explanation:

This is actually pretty simple

The exponent with the same power can be subtracted so

4a^5-2a^5 is 2a^5 like 4x-2x which is equal to 2x

4b+b is equal to 5b

2a^5+5b is your answer

An equation is shown below:
Anarel [89]
I would have to go with the first one because 2(3x-5)=1 is the same as 6x-10=1 
then all you have to do is divide 11 by 6 and the answetr should be c or in this case x=1.83 
to check your work do this 6(1.83)-10 and your answer should come to .98
all you have to do is round to 1.0

A small painting has an area of 400 cm^2. The length is 4 more than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the pool. Solve by c
anygoal [31]
A = l*w
l = 2w + 4
400 = (2w + 4)*w
0 = 2w^2 + 4w - 400

Then use the quadratic equation where a=2, b=4, and c=-400.

w = <span>13.2
l = 30.4
