8. 3x-4>38
3x>38+4
3x>42
x>42/3
x>14
So the answer is A. x>14
9. It's A. Two less than four times a number is 12. Because 4x (four times) and also it says 2 less than 4 times a number...
Answer:
The answer is -15.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 2x - 1
2. 2(-7) - 1
3. (-14) - 1
4. -15
By plugging in our x value, we are able to use PEMDAS to multiply 2 and the value of x and then, we subtract 1 from the value we got from step 3 to get -15.

Answer:
y -2 = -2/3(x +4)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are several different forms of the equation for a line. Each is useful in its own way. Here, the line crosses the y-axis at a point between integer values, so using that intercept point could be problematical. That suggests the "point-slope" form of the equation for a line would be a better choice.
That form is ...
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
__
The two marked points are (-4, 2) and (5, -4). All we need is the slope.
The slope is given by the formula ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1) . . . . . . . . where the given points are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
m = (-4 -2)/(5 -(-4)) = -6/9 = -2/3
Using the first point, the equation for the line can now be written as ...
y -2 = -2/3(x -(-4))
y -2 = -2/3(x +4)
