Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + x - 5 = x - 17

3x - x = -17 + 5

2x = -12

: x = -12/2

x = -6

(1, 4); slope = -2 write the linear equation in slope intercept form given
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

y=-2x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is -2x, meaning that the y-intercept can be found by working backwards from the given point. If the y value of the point is 4, subtracting 2 to get you to the point (0, 2) would provide the y-intercept.

Slope Intercept form is y=mx+b (m is the slope, x is the entered value, b is the y intercept)
