The equation of a line that goes through the point (x1,y1) and has a slope of m is
y-y1=m(x-x1)
so, given the point (-2,8)
x1=-2
y1=8
y-8=m(x-(-2))
y-8=m(x+2)
the equation is y-8=m(x+2) where m is the slope
or you could rewrite it to get y=mx+2m+8
Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
The applicable rule of exponents is ...
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
__
You have ...
(x^3)(x^a) = x^17
x^(3+a) = x^17
Equating exponents, we get ...
3 +a = 17
a = 14
The missing exponent is 14.
Answer:
y = 1x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 were sold in the morning. This is equal to 40% of the total. That leaves 60% leftover.
3/4 were sold in the afternoon. This is equal to 75% of the 60% leftover or 45% of the total (.6x.75).
The difference between the two sales is 24 cartons or 5% (45%-40%). If 5% is equal to 24 then you can cross multiply to see what is the equivalent number of cartons out of 100%.
5/100 = 24/x
5x = 24(100)
5x = 2400
x = 480
ANSWER: 480 cartons
