Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C and D dont go into 48 AND 136 evenly. B is the largest one there that goes into both 48 AND 136.

ta-da! :P

The answer is B

2 x 2 = 4

4 x 2 = 8

8 x 6 = 48

8 x 17 = 136

why isn't it C or D?

For C, 8 x 3 = 24 (throwing the 8 in there because the expression is the same as B).

24 x 2 = 48, but 24 x 5 = 120 and 24 x 6 = 144.

It's also the same reason why it's not D, except that the expression goes WAY into the 400's

Complete the point slope equation of the line through (-5, 7) and (-4, 0).

IgorLugansk [536]

For this case we have that by definition, the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

We have two points:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}): (- 5,7)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}): (- 4,0)$

We found the slope:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0-7} {- 4 - (- 5)} = \frac {-7} {-4 + 5} = \frac {-7} {1} = - 7$

Thus, the equation is of the form:

$y = -7x + b$

We substitute one of the points and find "b":

$0 = -7 (-4) + b\\0 = 28 + b\\b = -28$

Finally, the equation is:

$y = -7x-28$

Answer:

$y = -7x-28$

Why is it important to be able to solve for variables in equations?

stellarik [79]

Solving for variables in equations is important for many reasons. Of course, it's important to be able to solve for them so you can pass math tests. But even more so, it's important for real-life applications. There are many uses for solving equations. They can provide answers for mathematicians, accountants, insurance companies- you name it! There are way too many to list! It may not seem important now, but just keep working at it! I personally think solving equations is a ton of fun!
