M = 20/-4 = -5

Sub in (-4,0): 20+b = 0 ->b = -20

So, y = -5x - 20

The equation of a line y=2x+14. If the slope is doubled and the y-intercept is reduced by 5, what will be the new equation?

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

y = 4x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the linear equation, y = 2x + 14 where:

slope (m) = 2

y-intercept (b) = 14

Doubling the slope: 2 × 2 = 4

Reducing the y-intercept by 5: 14 - 5 = 9

Therefore, the new linear equation is:

y = 4x + 9

Convert 7(pi)/4 radians to degree measure

Umnica [9.8K]

Conversion Formula: Radian/π = Degree°/180°

R= 7π/4, Degree =?

Apply the formula:

So [(7π/4) / π = Degree / 180] (note that 7π/4) / π = 7/4)

Degree = (7/4) x 180° = 315°

Make two equations from the information. Then graph them and see where they intersect. The answer is 62 miles. Plug 62 back into both equations and they should both be the same number.
