The slope of line is \frac{-7}{8}

The point slope form is found when point (7, -4) is used is y + 4 = \frac{-7}{8}(x - 7)

The slope intercept form is y = \frac{-7}{8}x + \frac{17}{8}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

We have to find the equation of the line that passes through the points 7, -4 and -1, 3

<h3><u>Point slope form:</u></h3>

The point slope form is given as:

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

Where "m" is the slope of line

Given two points are (7, -4) and (-1, 3)

<h3><u>Let us find the slope of line</u></h3>

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Substituting (x_1 , y_1 ) = (7, -4) \text{ and } (x_2, y_2) = (-1, 3)

m=\frac{3-(-4)}{-1-7}=\frac{7}{-8}

m=\frac{-7}{8}

Thus slope of line is found

Substitute value of m and point (7, -4) in eqn 1

y - (-4) = \frac{-7}{8}(x - 7)\\\\y + 4 = \frac{-7}{8}(x - 7)

Thus the point slope form is found when point (7, -4) is used

<h3><u>Slope intercept form:</u></h3>

The slope intercept form is given as:

y = mx + c  ----- eqn 1

Where "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y - intercept

Substitute m = -7/8 and (x, y) = (7, -4) in eqn 1

-4 = \frac{-7}{8}(7) + c\\\\-32 = -49 + 8c\\\\8c = 17\\\\c = \frac{17}{8}

Substitute m = -7/8 and c = \frac{17}{8} in eqn 1

y = \frac{-7}{8}x + \frac{17}{8}

Thus the required equation of line is found

Which property is demonstrated by the equation (5 + a) + 3 = (a + 5) + 3?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Communitive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Commutative property = 2 + 3 = 3 + 2 or 2(3) = 3(2)

Associative Property = (2 x 3) 5 = 2 (3 x 5) or (2 + 3) + 5 = 2 + (3 + 5)

Inverse Property = 2 + (-2) = 0 or (2/1)(½) = 1

Basic Definitions:

<u><em>Commutative Property</em></u> - Gives you the ability to switch the order of the numbers in an expression.

<u><em>Associative Property</em></u> - Let's you move the parenthesis in an expression but not the numbers.

<u><em>Inverse</em></u> - Uses numbers like 0 and 1.

Using these basic definitions and examples, we can summarize that the best answer would be <u>Communitive Property</u>

<u></u>

What is the slope of the line?​
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Pick two points on the line

(0,1) and ( 2,-1)

Using the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = ( -1 -1)/(2-0)

     = -2/2

    = -1

Simplify the expression (4x - 3)(x + 5).
Drupady [299]
(4x-3)(x+5)
= 4x^2+20x-3x-15
= 4x^2+ 17x -15.

The final answer is 4x^2+ 17x -15~
