Answer:

y = 3x - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Step 1: Define variables

Slope m = 3

Random point (5, -4)

Step 2: Plug in known variables

y = 3x + b

Step 3: Find b

-4 = 3(5) + b

-4 = 15 + b

b = -19

Step 4: Write linear equation

y = 3x - 19

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of first n terms = 243

$a_{1} = 12 \\\\l = 42\\\\S_{n} = \dfrac{n}{2}(a_{1}+l)\\\\\dfrac{n}{2}(12+42) = 243\\\\\\\dfrac{n}{2}*54=243\\\\\\n*27=243\\\\n=\dfrac{243}{27}\\\\n=9$

Which graph represents the linear function y= -5x + 2

Semmy [17]

Look at all the options... the correct one should have a negative slope (so it would be a line decreasing), and it should also intersect on the Y axis at 2.
