Answer:
y = -34x + 62
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Use the point slope form: (y - y1) = m(x - x1)</u>
<u />
(y - (-6) = -34(x - 2)
y + 6 - 6 = -34x + 68 - 6
y = -34x + 62
Answer: y = -34x + 62
Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b (m = slope and b = y-intercept).
Since we are given the slope we only need to solve for the y-intercept. (Subsituting x and y with 2, -6 and solving for b.)
y = -34x + b
-6 = -34(2) + b
-6 = -68 + b
-6 + 68 = -68 + 68 + b
62 = b
Now, that we know what the y-intercept is we can put this into the final equation.
y = -34x + 62
Best of Luck!

Answer:
125 situps
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
25 situp x situps
--------------- = --------------
12 pushup 60 pushups
Using cross products
25 * 60 = 12x
Divide each side by 12
25*60/12 = 12x/12
125 = x
The answer is 45/8
You have make sure that the denominator has the same value!
31/4-17/8=62/8-17/8
=45/8
