Answer:

y= -3.5x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

insert (-2,0), (0,-7) into the equation y=ax+b

=> 0= -2a+b, -7=b

solve a, b

\left \{ {{-2a+b=0} \atop {b=-7}} \right.

=> -2a-7=0

=> -2a=7

=> a= -3.5, b= -7

insert a, b into the equation y=ax+b

y= -3.5x-7

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

(-2,0) (0,-7)                y2-y1

                            -----------------

                                 x2-x1

-7-0= -7

0- (-2)= 2             ------>>> -7/2 =m or slope

2.

y= -7/2x+b          to find b u plug in one pair of coordinates for example (-2,0)

                          and use inverse properties to find b

0 = -7/2(-2) + b

       14/2 = 7

0= 7+b

-7 -7

-----------

-7=b

3.

y=-7/2x-7

Danielle’s aunt is 8 years than 3 times Danielle’s age. Her aunt is 34. Write an equation that relates Danielle’s age, a, to her
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

*Assuming that the question should read '8 years less than 3 times Danielle's age'*

Equation:  3a - 8 = 34, where 'a' = Danielle's age

Danielle's age (a) = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using key words and phrases from the problem, we can find Danielle's age by setting up an equation to solve for 'a'.  

Since Danielle's aunt is '8 years less than 3 times Danielle's age' her aunt's age can be written as:  3a - 8.  We also know her aunt is 34.  So, the equation becomes:

3a - 8 = 34

Add 8 to both sides:  3a - 8 + 8 = 34 + 8 or 3a = 42

Divide both sides by 3:  3a/3 = 42/3

Solve for a:  a = 14, so Danielle's age is 14 years old.

-2log5 7x=2<br><br> the 5 is small please help me
RSB [31]
-2log_5 7x = log_5 2

log_5[1/(7x)^2] = log_5 2

log_5(1/49x^2) = log_5 2

log_5(1 - 49x^2) = log_5 2

1 - 49x^2 = 2

You finish.
