The slope formula is the difference of the y values over the difference in the x values. We have a slope, so we will fill in the formula with what we have and then solve for x:

. Multiply both sides by x-10 to get rid of the fraction. -2(x-10) = 4. Distribute to get -2x+20=4 and -2x = -16. That gives us an x value of 8.
Ok to solve this just write it out how it sounds, like so.
3x/4

-16
Hope this helps!=)
Your answer will turn out to be −4x^2+3x.
Answer:
a=10, b=5, c=2, d=12
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply each variable together
5*2=10
8*3=24
10
/24x
the coefficients (numbers) can each be divided by 2
5
/12x
subtract the "x" exponents together
5
/12
Gabrielle's age is 3x (in which x is mikhail's age)
the sum is 56 so 3x+x=56
3x+x=56
4x=56
x=14
since x was mikhail's age, mikhail is 14 years old
