Step-by-step explanation:

Given points (4 , -4) and ( 1, 2)

First calculating slope (m) 

=( y2 - y1) /( x2 -x1) 

= ( 2 + 4) / (1-4)

= 6/ -3

= -2

Now

The equation in point slope form

y - y1 = m ( x - x1) 

y + 4 = -2 ( x - 4)

y + 4 = -2x + 8

2x + y - 8 + 4 = 0

2x + y -4 = 0 which is the required equation

Answer:

(f+g)(x) = 60x + 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Amount in account A:

f(x) = 20x + 100

Amount in account B :

g(x) = 40x + 300

Total amount in Account A and B:

f(x) + g(x) = (20x + 100) + (40x + 300)

(f+g)(x) = (20x + 40x) + (100 + 300)

(f+g)(x) = 60x + 400

Which equation represents a line with a slope of -2/3 that passes through point (5, -2)?

serg [7]

Answer:

c) $2x + 3y = 4$

Step-by-step explanation:

−2 = −⅔[5] + b

−3⅓

1⅓ = b

y = −⅔x + 1⅓

Then convert to Standard Form:

y = −⅔x + 1⅓

+⅔x + ⅔x

__________

⅔x + y = 1⅓ [We do not want fractions in our Standard Equation, so multiply by the denominator to get rid of it.]

3[⅔x + y = 1⅓]

$2x + 3y = 4$

* 1⅓ = 4⁄3
