What is the equation of the line in point slope form given a slope of -3 and a point of (-2,-5)?​

Answer:

y = -3x - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the given slope and point in the point-slope equation. Solving this will give us the y-intercept equation.

Point-slope formula: y - y = m(x - x)

Plug in the slope and point

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

Subtracting negatives will make them positive. Multiply out the -3 to what is in the parentheses.

y + 5 = -3x - 6

Subtract the 5 from both sides

y = -3x - 11

The equation of the line is y = -3x - 11

The vertex of a parabola is at $(12, -4)$, and its axis of symmetry is vertical. One of the $x$-intercepts is at $(15, 0)$. What
laila [671]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the axis of symmetry is vertical and the vertex of the parabola is at (12,-4), the vertical line x=12 is the axis of symmertry. The x-distance between the axis of symmetry and the first x intercept (15,0) is equal to 15-12=3. Hence, this x-intercept is 3 units to the right of the axis, and because it is symmetric, the other x-intercept must be 3 units to the left of the axis, so its x-coordinate must be 12-3=9. Then, the other x-intercept is at the point (9,0)

Alaina sugar cookie recipe calls for 2 1/4 cups of flour per batch if she wants to make 2 /3 a batch of cookies how much flour s
lilavasa [31]
If we have 2+1/4 for a batch and want 2/3rds of that, we multiply (2+1/4) by 1/3 to get 2/3+1/12 (we can just multiply the denominator by 3 to divide by 1/3) = 8/12+1/12=9/12=3/4 ( we get 8/12 by figuring out that 12/3 =4 so we multiply 2/3 by 4/4). Since we need 2/3rds, we then multiply 3/4 by 2 to get 6/3 or 3/2.
