What is the point used in the equation of the line y+4=1/2(x-2)

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

Is the sum of two integers always greater than the difference between them? Why or why not?
Sauron [17]
Yes because the gap is one less than the bigger of the two integers, plus you are adding a little bit more to the bigger integer so the sum will always be bigger than the difference.

Two cylinders have equal diameters. are their volumes also equal? is the same true for cones and spheres?
Paraphin [41]
<span>Although two cylinders may have equal diameters, their volumes are not necessarily equal, as the volume of a cylinder is dependent also on the cylinder's height. The same holds true for cones. Spheres, however, are, by nature, proportional. Therefore, if two spheres have the same diameter, they also have the same volumes.</span>

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

The first one is 0, the second one is ARN (All real numbers)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Anything raised to the "zeroth" power is always 1

2. Because 7 is being raised to the zeroth power, the number inside the parentheses becomes 1. Now x can equal anything, 1 times itself will always equal 1, no matter how many times you multiply them.
