Answer: y+2=3(x+1)

so the first box you would put 2 and then the second box you would put 3!

There are two ways to equate a straight line. We first have y=mx+b. Then, we have (y-y₁)=m(x-x₁). Both work fine and have similar variables, but the numbers are mixed around a bit. Your equation clearly shows the second form of equation. As our equation has x-x₁ on the right, we can notice that x+1 must mimic that, so x+1=(x-x₁). As x-(-1)=x+1, we can only assume that x is -1. Looking at the points given to us, y must be -2, so we have y-(-2)=y+2, so 2 fills in the leftmost open box. To find the slope, or m, we must take

\frac{(y_{1} -y_{2})}{(x_{1} -x_{2})} from points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂). It doesn't matter which point is (x₁, y₁) , but it matters that the y₁ corresponds to the x₁. Thus, we have our slope as \frac{-2-10}{-1-3} =\frac{-12}{-4} =3


Feel free to ask further questions, and Happy Halloween!

Which values of m and b will create a system of equations with no solution? Check all that apply. y = mx + b y = –2x + 3/2
Leni [432]
Lines with no solution are parallel lines....parallel lines will contain the same slope, but different y intercepts.

y = -2x + 3/2....slope (m) = -2 and y int (b) = 3/2
so the line we need will have a slope of -2, but can have any y int EXCEPT 3/2.

m = -2, and b = -1/3 is parallel, no solution
m = -2 and b = -2/3...parallel, no solution

What does X equal in the equation 8(4-x) =7x +2
drek231 [11]

Answer:

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8(4 - x) = 7x + 2 ← distribute parenthesis on left side

32 - 8x = 7x + 2 ( subtract 7x from both sides )

32 - 15x = 2 ( subtract 32 from both sides )

- 15x = - 30 ( divide both sides by - 15 )

x = 2
