Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
This looks like point-slope form, which I find personally hideous. Let's change it to slope-intercept form to ease my conscience. (remember that slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept!)
y - 5 = -4(x-8)
y - 5 = -4x + 32
y = -4x + 37
It's in slope-intercept form now! And -4 looks to be our m.
<u>So the slope is -4.</u>
The answer would be 68000 you can find it easily by moving the decimal to the right if the exponent is positive if its negative move it to the left.
You are the smartest person i know
I think the equation you're looking for may be y = -7.5 + 2.5x
hope this helps!
