Answer:

y = -4x+15

Step-by-step explanation:

y=x/4+5 may be presented as y = 1/4 x + 5, where a=1/4, b=5

swapping numerator and denominator and inserting an opposite sign in a=1/4, we have:

1/4 --------> 4/1 -------> -4/1 = -4

y = -4x+n

Point (2,7) means that x=2, y=7 substitute it to the equation y=-4x+n, calculate "n":

7=-4*2+n ------>    7=-8+n ------->   7+8 = n -------> 15=n

substituting n=15 to the equation y=-4x+n, we get finally y=-4x+15

Please help 5 questions I need help
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

1. <2, <7

2. 58

3. 78

4. a and b

h5. <2 and <7 ( i think this is the same question as the first one)

Step-by-step explanation:

2. 2x + 7 = 123 (you have to make them equal to each other because they are consecutive interior angles)

2x + 7 = 123, subtract 7

2x = 116, divide 2 for both sides to make x by itself

x = 58

3. 78 because of consecutive interior angles
