slope intercept form
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
if we change from point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
we distribute
y-y1 = mx -x*x1
then add y1 to each side
y = mx -x*x1+y1
remember x and y are variables and should stay in the equation
m,x1,y1 are numbers from the problem
you may have to calculate the slope (m) from the formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) from two points on the line
Answer: It would be E
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute: the way things are divided or spread out
Sentence: She studies the distribution of wildcats in the area.
7(3r-1)-(r+5)=-52
21r-7-r-5=-52
21r-r-5-7=-52
20r-12=-52
Add 12 to both sides
20r=-40
Divide by 20
r=-2
