Use the linear slope formula to solve for m:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

using the points (-1,1) and (1,5) you can find the slope for the first interval:

m=(5-1)/(1-(-1))
m=4/2
m=2

you can double check by using the same formula on the second interval, which is (1,5) to (3,9).

m=(9-5)/(3-1)
m=4/2
m=2

therefore, the rate of change is 2.

4(3x+5)= -4

NeX [460]

Answer/explanation

4(3x+5)=-4

You will distribute the four to every term in the parenthesis,

12x+20=-4

Then you will combine like terms

12x+20=-4

-20 -20

12x=-24

Then you will divide 12 to isolate x

$\frac{12x}{-24} =\frac{-24}{-24}$

Obviously, -24 cancels out and you would get x=-2
