Hello there! So, y = mx + b is in slope-intercept form, where m represents the slope, b represents the y-intercept, and y and x remain unfilled. First off, let's solve for the slope. The formula for slope is y2 - y1 / x2 - x1, where you subtract the first x and y coordinates from the second x and y coordinates. So it would be formed like this:
9 - 4 / 6 - (-4)
Let's subtract. 9 - 4 is 5. 6 - (-4) is 10. 5/10 is 1/2 in simplest form. The slope for this equation is 1/2. Now, let's find the y-intercept. We will find that by plugging one of the points into the equation and solving for b. The x and y coordinates will be filled in by that coordinate. Let's use (-4, 4) for this problem. We will also plug in the slope. In this case, the problem will look like this:
4 = (1/2)(-4) + b
Now, let's multiply 1/2 and -4 to get -2. Now, to get b by itself, subtract 2 to both sides to isolate the b. -2 + 2 cancels out. 4 + 2 is 6. b = 6. There. The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = 1/2x + 6.
Plug in 2 for x, and -4 for y
2(2)² + 3(2)(-4) - (-4)²
2² = 4(2) = 8
3(2) = 6(-4) = -24
-4² = 16
8 - 24 - 16 = answer
Simplify.
answer = 8 - 40
answer = -32
-32 is your answer
hope this helps
Answer:
n = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
when you are multiplying, you add the exponents. 2 + x = 20. so by using subtraction we find that x = 18.
Let Kamil get x. Therefore Sean would get (x + 56).
Kamil and Sean are in the ratio: 3:5
That means: x : (x + 56) = 3 : 5
x / (x + 56) = 3/5
5*x = 3*(x + 56)
5x = 3*x + 3*56
5x = 3x + 168
5x - 3x = 168
2x = 168
x = 168 / 2
x = 84
Therefore Kamil had, x = 84, and Sean had (x + 56) = 84 + 56 = 140
Kamil had $84 and Sean had $140
