Answer:

y=-1/2x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the points to find the slope of the line.

Equation: y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁

2-4/-2-(-6)

2-4/-2+6

-2/4

-1/2 is the slope of the line

So the equation is y=-1/2x+b

We can substitute one of the x-coordinates and the matching y-coordinate into this equation:

2=-1/2*(-2)+b

2=1+b

1=b

b=1

Therefore, the equation is y=-1/2x+1

solniwko [45]
2 + 4(3+2x) = 3x + 8

2 + 12 + 8x = 3x + 8

14 - 8 = 3x - 8x

6 = -5x

x = -6/5

Alan is comparing the cost of a fresh lobster dinner at two different restaurants. The first
Pepsi [2]

Good evening ,

Answer:

The weight : 29 pound

Alan would pay for his dinner : $130

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the weight of the lobster

the cost of the dinner at restaurant 1 is 4x + 14  

the cost of the dinner at restaurant 2 is 3x + 43

Now ,we have to solve the equation :  4x + 14 = 3x + 43

4x + 14 = 3x + 43

⇔ x = 43 - 14

⇔ x = 29

In this case Alan would pay the same amount for his dinner at any restaurant:

the price = 4×(29)+14 = 130

               = 3×(29)+43 = 130.

What is the slope of the line given by the equation below? y - 9 = 15(x - 5)
Elina [12.6K]
Y - 9 = 15x - 75

y = 15x - 75 + 9

y = 15x - 66              y = mx + c,   slope = m

m = slope = 15
