The slope of the line is 4

The point slope form of the line can be written as (y - 8) = 4(x - 9)

The slope intercept form of the line is y = 4x - 28

In order to find the slope you will need to use the formula for slope. It is included below.

m(slope) = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (8 - -12)/(9 - 4)

m = (8 + 12)/(9 - 4)

m = 20/5

m = 4

Now that we have the slope, we can plug it into point slope form along with one of the points.

(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

(y - 8) = 4(x - 9)

Now to get to the slope-intercept form of the line, we can simply manipulate the point-slope form until it is in y = mx + b

(y - 8) = 4(x - 9) ----> Distribute the 4

y - 8 = 4x - 36 -----> Add 8 to both sides

y = 4x - 28

Find the integer that makes this subtraction statement true -3 - ? = -5
Elenna [48]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{2}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing integer be x

Solve for x

\sf{ - 3 - x =  - 5}

Move 3 to right hand side and change it's sign

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ - x =  - 5 + 3}}

The negative and positive integers are always subtracted but posses the sign of the bigger integer

\dashrightarrow{ \sf{ - x =  - 2}}

Change the signs of both sides

\dashrightarrow{ \boxed{ \sf{x = 2}}}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Mentally confused, please help.

If you are looking for the surface area of the cube, it is 169. The equation for the surface area of a square is base times height. This would mean it’s 13x13 since all the sides are the same. 13x13=169

What is the interval notation for the compound inequality? x is less than or equal to -4 or x is greater than or equal to 5?
Tems11 [23]

x is less than or equal to -4 or x is greater than or equal to 5

x <= -4 or x>= 5

There is no intersection of both inequalities when we graph it in number line So, we write the interval notation separately for each inequality

for x<=-4 , x starts at -4  and goes to -infinity because we have less than symbol. Also we have = sign so we use square brackets

Interval notation is (-∞ , -4]

for x>= 5 , x starts at 5  and goes to infinity because we have greater than symbol. Also we have = sign so we use square bracket at 5

Interval notation is [5 , ∞)

Now combine both notation by a 'U' symbol Union

(-∞ , -4] U [5 , ∞)
