Answer:
y - 2 = - 5(x - 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = - 5 and (a, b) = (7, 2) , thus
y - 2 = - 5(x - 7) ← equation in point- slope form
Answer:
n 1932 DeBakey devised the “roller pump,” an essential component of the heart-lung machine that permitted open-heart surgery. He also developed an efficient method of correcting aortic aneurysms by grafting frozen blood vessels to replace diseased vessels.

Step-by-step explanation:
All you have to do is plug it into slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b
y = (-2)x + 4
y = -2x + 4
the answer is A
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a quadratic expression. Use the quadratic formula to find the roots, and then once you have the roots, write the corresponding factors.
The coefficients of this quadratic expression are a = 7, b = 5 and c = -3
The discriminant is b^2 - 4ac, or 5^ - 4(7)(-3), or 25 + 84 = 109. Because this is positive, we know that the expression has two unequal, real roots.
Using the quadratic formula, we now find these roots:
-b ± √(discriminant)
x = -------------------------------- which here is:
2a
-5 ± √109
x = -----------------
14
The factors can be found from these two roots. The first one is
-5 - √109 5 + √109
(x - ---------------- ) = (x + ---------------- )
14 14
and the second is
5 - √109
(x + ---------------- )
14
