I believe the answer is 5. I multiplied 5 to -4 and that’s -20 and I’m guessing since slope-intercept form is y=Mx+b I’m thinking b=4 and the slope being 5 matches the output. -16=5(-4)+4

Point-Slope Form<br> *See photo*

Answer:

y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the equation 'y = 3x + ?' intersects the point (1, -2). This means that when x = 1, y = -2 in out equation above. To solve this just plug in the x and y values to get '?'.

$y = 3x + ?\\-2 = 3(1) + ?\\-5 = ?$

Now that we know '?' is -5, we write it back into slope intercept form, so our final answer is y = 3x - 5

One number is seven less than five times another. If their sum is decreased by four the result is one. Find the numbers

juin [17]

Let the number be Y .
Y is seven
less than 5 times another (let that other be X)
Y=7-5X
sum of both Y and X minus 4 gives one
Y+X-4=1
now solve both equations .
