Answer:
What is the point used in the equation of the line y+4=1/2(x-2)
The other format for straight-line equations is called the "point-slope" form. For this one, they give you a point (x1, y1) and a slope m, and have you plug it into this formula:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Don't let the subscripts scare you. They are just intended to indicate the point they give you. You have the generic "x" and generic "y" that are always in your equation, and then you have the specific x and y from the point they gave you; the specific x and y are what is subscripted in the formula. Here's how you use the point-slope formula
They've given me m = 4, x1 = -1, and y1 = -6. I'll plug these values into the point-slope form, and solve for "y=":
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - (-6) = (4)(x - (-1))
y + 6 = 4(x + 1)
y + 6 = 4x + 4
y = 4x + 4 - 6
y = 4x - 2
The last choice is right sure because this is a perfect square trinomial
(4xy -3z)^2 = 16x^2y^2 -24xyz +9z^2
hope this will help you
Based from background knowledge, I believe that the correct answer among all of the given choices would be B.) 38/2. This would give you 19. If I am mistaken, please correct me. But I am definitely positive that this is the right answer.
I hope this is the answer you were looking for and that it helps!! :)
Answer:
x = 5/2
y = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
if both equations start with 'y=' then set the expressions equal to each other
3/5x - 1 = x - 3
add 1 to each side to get:
3/5x = x - 1
subtract 5/5x from each side:
3/5x - 5/5x = -1
-2/5x = -1
multiply each side by -5/2:
x = 5/2
y = 2 1/2 - 3
y = -1/2
17 out of 20 is 85 percent.
