Answer:

The equation of this line would be y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find any line given a slope and a point, use the base form of point-slope form and plug in the known values. Then solve for y.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = -2(x - 2)

y - 1 = -2x + 4

y = -2x + 5

En Colima se lleva acabo la conferencia sobre la energética eólica a la cual asistieron 120 representantes de Latinoamérica y Su

andriy [413]

The first thing we must do for this case is to see how many representatives from each country attended.
We have then:
Argentines = (1/6) * (120) = 20
Chileans = (1/5) * (120) = 24
Bolivians = (1/4) * (120) = 30
Venezuelans = (1/4) * (120) = 30
Adding we have:
20 + 24 + 30 + 30 = 104
Therefore the number of Americans is:
120-104 = 16
Answer:
16 Americans attended the wind energy conference
