Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope equation is y-y₁=m(x-x₁). Since we don't know our slope, we can use the formula $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$ to find the slope. All we have to do is use the coordinate we were given and plug it into the formula.

$m=\frac{-1-(-3)}{2-(-3)} =\frac{2}{5}$

Now that we have the slope, we can fill out the point-slope equation.

y-(-3)=2/5(x-(-3))

y+6=2/5(x+3)

This is the point-slope form.

Now, we can distribute and solve to get slope-intercept form.

y+6=2/5x+6/5

y=2/5x-24/5

The function F(c)=log0.5x is decreasing true or false

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

true

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you intend your function to be ...

$F(x)=\log_{0.5}x$

A logarithm with a base less than 1 is a decreasing curve. Here, the base appears to be 0.5, a value less than 1. Hence the curve is decreasing.

Ishaan is 3 times as old as Chris and is also 14 years older than Chris. How old is ishaan?

hram777 [196]

Answer:We are also given that Ishaan is 14 years older than Christopher, so I is also 14 more than c. This gives that I = c + 14. Since I = 3c and I = c + 14, we have that 3c is equal to c + 14, giving the equation 3c = c + 14.

well this is from google and just so u know the letters stand for the names

When building a house, the number of days required to build varies inversely with with the number of workers. One house was buil

Helga [31]

Let d represent number of days and n represent number of workers.

We have been given that when building a house, the number of days required to build varies inversely with with the number of workers.

We know that the equation $y=\frac{k}{x}$ represents the relation where y is inversely proportional to x and k is the constant of proportionality.
