What is equivalent to 3x-4-(5x+7)

Easy, so here’s what you do, take care of the parenthesis so it looks like 3x-4 because the negative is disturbed to make the positive 5x a negative and the positive 7x into a negative, a good pointer is anytime you’re multiplying two signs, a good thing to know is if the signs are different, it’s negative, if they’re the same, they’re positive. Now you want to move the negative 5x to the left of the +3x so you should see -5x+3x-4-7 so from here, you want to add the -5x to the 3x to get you -2x so now you should have -2x-4-7 then subtract the 4 from the seven or the seven from the four looking like 4-7 to get you -11 so now you should have
-2x -11 << I hope this helped!! ^_^

Which equation represents the relation that is shown in the graph?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First let's notice a couple things:

All the answers are in y = mx + b form
Two of the answers don't have a value for b
Pretty much all of the answers have a different m value

So let's go in order of our realizations.

Let's start with figuring out what b is. By simply looking at the graph, we can see that b = 0, because the line starts at (0, 0). Remember that b is when the line crosses the y axis, and our y value at x = 0 is 0.

This crosses out A and B.

Now let's find m, aka the slope. We can figure this out using the slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}} \\m=\frac{14-7}{4-2} \\m=\frac{7}{2}$
