I only know how to do a, so i hope i can help a little bit.
y=mx+b
-2=-3(7)+b
-2=-21+b
b=19
so your equation is y=-3x+19
i hope this helps!!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope = (change in the value of y in the y axis) / (change in the value of x in the x axis)

The slope of the equation is given as - 3

The line passes through the point (7,-2)

To determine the intercept, we would substitute m = - 3, x = 7 and y = -2 into y = mx + c. It becomes

- 2 = - 3 × 7 + c = - 21 + c

c = - 2 + 21 = 19

The equation becomes

y = -3x + 19

b) the standard form is expressed as

Ax + by = C

We would substitute x = 7, y = - 2 and m = - 3 into the point slope equation, y - - 2 = - 3(x - 7)

y + 2 = - 3x + 21

3x + y = 21 - 2

3x + y = 19

The standard form is 3x + y = 19

For which positive integer values of $k$ does $kx^2+20x+k=0$ have rational solutions? Express your answers separated by commas a

Musya8 [376]

Answer:

-10,10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given quadratic equation is

$k {x}^{2} + 20x + k = 0$

The discriminant of this equation is given by;

$D = {b}^{2} - 4ac$

where a=k, b=20, c=k

For rational solutions, the discriminant must be zero.

${20}^{2} - 4 \times k \times k = 0$

Simplify to get:

$400 - 4 {k}^{2} = 0$

This implies that:

$400 = 4 {k}^{2}$

$100 = {k}^{2}$

Take square root to get:

$k = \pm\sqrt{100}$

$k = \pm10$

$k = - 10 \: or \: k = 10$

Easy Points if you know math. Please help, question attached in picture.

blagie [28]

Answer:

y = 1/2x +6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a point and a slope. Therefore we can use the point slope form to create a line

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-5 = 1/2(x--2)

y-5 = 1/2(x+2)

Distribute the 1/2

y-5 = 1/2x +1

Add 5 to each side

y-5+5 = 1/2x +1+5

y = 1/2x +6

This is in slope intercept form
