Answer:

The answer to your question is -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-8, -35)

B (6, 21)

Process

1.- Calculate the slope

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

x1 = -8  y1 = -35   x2 = 6   y2 = 21

-Substitution

            m = (21 + 35) / (6 + 8)

-Simplification

            m = 56 / 14

-Result

            m = 4

2.- Calculate the equation of the line

            y - y1 = m(x - x1)

-Substitution

            y + 35 = 4(x + 8)

-Simplification

            y + 35 = 4x + 32

            y = 4x + 32 - 35

-Result

             y = 4x - 3

3.- Find the y-intercept

The y-intercept is the number after the x, for this equation is -3.

The straight line ax+by=1passes through the points (1,4)and (3,1).Find the values of a and b?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

a= 3/11

b = 2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

a(1) + b(4) = 1

a + 4b = 1

a(3) + b(1) = 1

3a + b = 1

b = 1-3a

a + 4(1-3a) = 1

a+ 4-12a = 1

-11a = -3

a = 3/11

b = 1-3(3/11)

b= 2/11

I don’t know. I think I’m doing something wrong. Answer the highlighted questions and show work.
pentagon [3]

12) -5k - 19 = 5 - 13k

-5k = 24 - 13k

8k = 24

k = 3


14) -15n + 16 = 86 - 29n

-15n = 70 - 29n

14n = 70

n = 5


16) 13 - 3p = -5(3 + 2p)

13 - 3p = -15 - 10p

-3p = -28 - 10p

7p = -28

p = -4


18) 14a - 93 = 49 - 57a

14a = 142 - 57a

71a = 142

a = 2


20) 8v = 2(4v + 2)

8v = 8v + 4

No solution


22) 2(-4h - 13) = 37 + 13h

-8h - 26 = 37 + 13h

-8h = 63 + 13h

-21h = 63

h = -3


24) 11n - 3 = 9 + 5n

6n = 12

n = 2


26) -9n - 12 = 8 - 4n

-5n - 12 = 8

-5n = 20

n = -4
