Expand out, this literally just wants you to multiply everything by -1.
so 7*-1 = -7
-c*-1 = c
thus putting them together to get -7+c which is just c-7
Answer:
y = 4x - 17
Step-by-step explanation:
we can use the equation y = mx + b
where m is the slope.
now we want to find the value of b.
so
7 = 24 + b
b= -17
so the answer is
y = 4x -17
Answer:
The coordinates of C is (-8,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the attached image, you'd see that, AB is 1 and BC is 1, that's because we are told that ratio of AB to AC is 1:2 meaning, AC is 2 and AB is 1. Therefore for that ratio to be satisfied BC has to be 1 so that AC would be 2.
Now let's assume the coordinates of C is
.
To get it's coordinates, we use the section formula:

Where (m,n) is the (AB, BC)
Therefore we have

This gives:

and 
From there x = -8 and y = 1
Therefore the coordinates of C is (-8, 1).
Step-by-step explanation:
2x + 2y = 3 ( x2 for everything in the equation)
x - 4y = -1
4x+ 4y = 6
x - 4y = -1
Add the 1st line to the 2nd line to get rid of the y:
5x = 5
x - 4y = -1 ( you can pick any line from this system to be the second equation in this step, you can put 2x + 2y = 3 or 4x+ 4y = 6, anything above this step, but to make it simple chose the one you think is the easiest)
Solve for x, then plug the x value into the 2nd equation
x = 1
1 - 4y = -1
x = 1
-4y = -2 =) y = 1/2
x = 1
y= 1/2
