Sure you do !
I'll tell you what it is, and why, and you'll slap your forehead
and call yourself names.
The 'standard' form of an equation that shows the slope and intercept is
y = (slope) x + (intercept)
<em><u>What if the slope is zero</u> ?</em>
Then the equation is y = (0) x + intercept
or
y = intercept.
Does that look anything like y = -3 ?
Answer:
a = 5, b = -12
Step-by-step explanation:
By basic factoring, you get 9 - 12i + 
. Since 
is simply -1, the expression evaluates to 9 - 12i - 4, which is 5 - 12i.

Answer:
2 ≤ x
Step-by-step explanation:
Maybe you want to solve ...
54 -10x ≤ 20 +7x
34 ≤ 17x . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10x-20 to both sides
2 ≤ x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 17
Answer:
y = -1/3x + 14/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the standard equation as;
y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
the given points are;
(-1,5) and (2,4)
So we plug x and y for each of the points
then we create two linear equations which we can solve simultaneously to get the values of m and b
From the points;
5 = -m + b•••••••(i)
4 = 2m + b
from i;
b = 5 + m
substitute this into equation ii
4 = 2m + 5 + m
4 = 3m + 5
4-5 = 3m
3m = -1
m = -1/3
Recall;
b = 5 + m
b = 5-1/3
b = 14/3
so we have the equation as;
y = -1/3x + 14/3
Multiply through by 3
3y = -x + 14
I'm not quite sure, you should be able to divide the original number by 1
