Answer:

15 and 29

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the larger number = x

then the smaller number= 2x-1 because first is one less than twice the second

if the total is 44 then add the 2 numbers together to form an equation

x+2x-1=44

3x-1=44

3x=45

x=15

2x-1= 2(15)-1= 30-1= 29

15 and 29

n+2n-1=44

3n-1=44

3n=45

n=15

2x-1= 2(15)-1= 30-1= 29

Write an equation in point-slope form for the line that has a slope of 45 and contains the point (−5,−3).
olga55 [171]

Answer:

y+3=45(x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Point-Slope Form:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

Where

y1 stands for the y-coordinate of the point

m stands for the slope of the line

x1 stands for the x-coordinate of the point

In this case, the slope is 45, the y-coordinate of the given point is -3, and the x-coordinate of the point is -5.

Plug in the values and solve:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-(-3)=45(x-(-5)

y+3=45(x+5)

Hope it helps!

Enjoy your day!

Please feel free to ask if you have any doubts.
