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

A number between 10 and 20 is both a foctor of 60 and<br>a multiple of 6.<br>What is the number?​
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

List out factors of 60 =

1 x 60 = 60

2 x 30 = 60

3 x 20 = 60

4 x 15 = 60

5 x 12 = 60

6 x 10 = 60

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30 and 60 are factors of 60.

List out multiples of 6 from 10 to 20.

12 and 18.

Since 12 is seen on one of the factors of 60 and a multiple of 6 between 10 and 20, the answer is 12.

Evaluate when x = 2 and y = 5:<br> 2 + (12 - 5x): 2g
Lemur [1.5K]

Just substitute x = 2 and y = 5 into the equation wherever you see x and y.

2 + (12 - 5x) · 2y

2 + (12 - 5(2)) · 2(5)

2 + (2) · 10

4 · 10

40, is the answer which should be the first box.
