Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of a line is given with the formula

Using the first two points, (-2, 8) and (-1, 2), we have
m = (2-8)/(-1--2) = -6/(-1+2) = -6/1 = -6
=(-17) - 4
=(-17) + (-4)
=(-21)
Answer:
(x) = 
Step-by-step explanation:
let y = f(x) and rearrange making x the subject, that is
y = 5x + 4 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
y - 4 = 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )
= x
change x to
(x) and y back to x, thus
(x) =
