4x − 1 = −2 (x + 1) ⇒ Given
4x−1=−2x−2⇒ Distributive property (since we've multiplied out -2(x+1))
6x−1=−2 ⇒ <span>Addition or Subtraction Property of Equality (We've added 2x onto the 4x to get 6x)
</span>6x=−1 ⇒ <span>Commutative Property (We've moved -1 to the other side to get the sum -2+1 = -1)
</span>x=−¹/₆ ⇒ <span>Multiplication or Division Property of Equality (We divided both sides by 6)</span>
Hey!~
If a mutant-zombie grew 5 limbs today, lost 12 limbs, then grew two more, then the mutant zombie has 5 less than yesterday. 5-12+2=-5.
Hope this helps!

Answer:
m = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -x can also be written as
y = -1x + 0
The slope is -1.
In slope intercept equations, if the slope is '1' or '-1' they would usually drop the one.
Hope this helps.
