Given that the line passes through the two points (-3,4) and (2,8)
We need to determine the equation of the line.
<u>Slope:</u>
The slope of the line can be determined using the formula,
Substituting the points (-3,4) and (2,8) in the above formula, we get;
Thus, the slope of the line is
<u>Equation of the line:</u>
The equation of the line can be determined using the formula,
Substituting the point (-3,4) and in the above formula, we have;
Thus, the equation of the line is
Step 1: Multiply 5x2 = 10 so the equation after the first step should look like this 10 + 12x + 8 = 0.
Step 2: Subtract 10 from the 8 and the number by itself cause whatever you do to one side you must do to the other. so the equation should look like this after the second step 12x + -2 = 0 because we subtracted the 10 and the 8.
Step 3: Now we must add the 2 to both sides because we have to do the inverse operation in this problem so once we've done this it should end up looking like this after the 3rd step 12x = 2 because the 2 was a negative.
Step 4: the final step we must divide since an anytime we have a number next to a variable it means multiply but since were using order of operations we have to do the opposite/inverse operation in this problem and we would divide 12 by 2 and get our final answer as x = -6 because the 12 would cancel itself out leaving us with 2 divided by 12 which is 0.16 or -6 depending on if you want it simplified or not the simplified answer would be 0.16 and the non simplified version would be -6
The answer would be 17, 990
The horizontal line has equation 
. The line is solid, and everything below it is shaded, which translates to the inequality 
. (so not B nor D)
The dashed line must have equation 
. Because it's dashed, the inequality is strict. Pick any point in the shaded region, (0, 0) for instance, and compare both sides of this equation. (0, 0) means both 
and 
, so on the left side we have 0, and on the right we have -1. 0 > -1, so the inequality must be 
.
This means the answer is A.
