Answer:

The expression represents JL is 3x - 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

JM = 5x – 8 and LM = 2x – 6.

Now, to find expression represents JL.

JM = JL + LM

Subtracting both sides by LM we get:

JM - LM = JL.

JL = JM - LM

Now, putting the expression to get JL:

$JL=5x-8-(2x-6)$

$JL=5x-8-2x+6$

$JL=3x-2.$

Therefore, the expression represents JL is 3x - 2.

Find the equation of the line passing through the points (5,21) and (-5,-29)

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Look below

Step-by-step explanation:

lets have -29 be y2 and -5 be x2

21 - (-)29

5 - (-)5

Subtracting a negative is just adding it so

21 + 29 50
5 + 5 10

50/10

this simplified, is 5/1 or 5

y=5x+b

now we need to find b, so we substitute y and y

x = 5

y = 21

21=5*5=b

5*5 is 25

now we need to get to 21

25 -4 is 21

b = -4

y=5x-4
