The value of "b" is the y-intercept.

In order to figure out slope-intercept form you need 1 coordinate and the slope.
1) Find the slope, using the 2-point slope formula: "m= y2-y1 / x2-x1".
   ex. m= -5 - 3 / -4 - -6   (simplify)--->   m= -4

2) Fill in the blanks for point-slope formula: "y - y1 = m (x - x1)"
(choose one coordinate, it doesn't matter which one)
   ex. y - -5 = -4 (x - -4)

3) Then use basic algebra to simplify.

Answer:

x⁵+ 45x⁴+ 810x³+ 7290x²+ 32805x +59049

Step-by-step explanation:

Greetings !

Given expression

(x + 9) {}^{5}

write 5 as a sum

(x + 9) {}^{3 + 2}

use \: a {}^{m + n}  = a {}^{m}  \times a {}^{n} to \: expand \: the \: expression.

(x + 9) {}^{3}  \times (x + 9) {}^{2}

Use (a+b)³=a³+3a²b+b³ to expand the expression

(x {}^{3}  + 27x {}^{2}  + 243x + 729) \times (x + 9) {}^{2}

Use (a+b)²=a²+2ab+b² to the second expression to expand it

(x {}^{3}  + 27x {}^{2}  + 243x + 729) \times(x {}^{2}  + 18x + 81)

Finally, simplify the expression gives

x {}^{5}  + 45x {}^{4}  + 810x {}^{3}  + 7290x {}^{2}  + 32805x + 59049

Hope it helps!

Estimate the area of Alberta in square miles. Show your reasoning
ella [17]

Answer:  About 278,250\ mi^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing figure is attached.

Notice in the first picture that Alberta has a complex shape.

You can calculate the area of a complex shape by decomposing it into polygons whose areas can be calculated easily.

Observe the second picture. Notice that it can be descompose into two polygons: A trapezoid and a rectangle.

The area of the trapezoid  can be calcualted with the formula:

A_t=\frac{h}{2}(B+b)

Where "h" is the height, "B" is the long base and "b" is short base.

And the area of the rectangle can be found with the formula:

 A_r=lw

Wkere "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

Then, the apprximate area of Alberta is:

A=\frac{h}{2}(B+b)+lw

Substituting vallues, you get:

A=(\frac{(410\ mi-180\ mi)}{2})(760\ mi+470\ mi)+(180\ mi)(760\ im)\\\\A=141,450\ mi^2+136,800\ mi^2\\\\A=278,250\ mi^2

Therefore, the area of of Alberta is about 278,250\ mi^2.

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer: -7y+8x

Step-by-step explanation: I assume you mean to simplify

Step 1: Remove parentheses : -4y - x - (3y - 9x)

Step 2: -(3y - 9x) = -3y + 9x

Step 3: Simplify: -4y - x - 3y +9x

Step 4: Answer: -7y+8x
