We know that the slope is -5, so:

y = -5x + b

Input (1, 2)

2 = -5 + b

b = 7

So:

y = -5x + 7

You are using the equation:

y = mx + b

You need to find "m" and "b".

"m" is the slope, "b" is your y-intercept(when x = 0)

For the equation of the line to be parallel to the given equation, the slopes have to be the SAME. The slope of the given line is -5, so the parallel line's slope is also -5. (m = -5)

y = mx + b

y = -5x + b

To find b, you plug in the point (1,2) into the equation

y = -5x + b

2 = -5(1) + b

2 = -5 + b Add 5 on both sides to get "b" by itself

2 + 5 = -5 + b + 5

7 = b


Your equation is:

y = -5x + 7

Which equation represents an exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80)?
Lena [83]

The function f(x) = 5(x)⁴, and f(x) = 5(4)ˣ represents the function that passes through the point (2, 80) option second and fourth are correct.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always a positive. It denotes with exponent \rm y = a^x

where a is a constant and a>1

We have; an exponential function that passes through the point (2, 80).

f(x) = 4(x)⁵

Plug (2, 80) in the abovew function:

f(2) = 4(2)⁵ = 128 (false)

f(x) = 5(x)⁴

Plug (2, 80) in the abovew function:

f(2) = 5(2)⁴ = 80 (true)

f(x) = 4(5)ˣ

f(2) = 4(5)² = 100 (false)

f(x) = 5(4)ˣ

f(2) = 5(4)² = 80 (true)

Thus, the function f(x) = 5(x)⁴, and f(x) = 5(4)ˣ represents the function that passes through the point (2, 80) option second and fourth are correct.

Is (1,-3) is a solution of the equation 8p-2q=14?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: YES

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

  8p - 2q = 14

8(1) - 2(-3) = 14

8   -    -6   = 14

 8    +   6  = 14

       14      = 14

            TRUE
