Answer:

y - 2 = 5(x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

here m = 5 and (a, b) = (- 7, 2), hence

y - 2 = 5(x - (- 7)), that is

y - 2 = 5(x + 7)

Answer:

$y-2=5\left(x+7\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form:

$y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)$

m represents the slope

(x1,y1) represents the coordinate point

Our answer would be $y-2=5\left(x+7\right)$

Measuring tape , ruler, the possibilities are endless. A string, a rope, anything that you know its length, like a 1 meter rope can help measure a 10 meter garden.

Answer: $\textsf{Option A, 13}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given: $\textsf{Side length = 9 units}$

Find: $\textsf{Diagonal length}$

Solution: The diagonal length can be easily determined using an equation which uses the side length of a square multiplied by the square root of 2. All we need to do is plug in the values and simplify the expression.
