Answer:

y = - 2x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Here m = - 2, thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (5, 2) into the partial equation

2 = - 10 + c ⇒ c = 2 + 10 = 12

y = - 2x + 12 ← equation of line

PLS HELP!<br> solve by completing the square<br> x²+4x=8

masya89 [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+4x=8

rearrange

x² + 4x - 8 = 0

half of 4 is 2

x² + 4x + 2² - 2² - 8 = 0

do x² + 4x + 2²

multiplies to give 4 adds to give 4

2+ 2

(x + 2)²

(x + 2)² - 2² - 8

(x + 2)² - 4 - 8

(x + 2)² - 12

(x + 2 + √12) (x + 2 - √12)

√12 = √4 * √3 = 2 √3

(x + 2 + 2√3) (x + 2 - 2√3)

M,H, and G have written more than a combined total of 22 articles. H has written 1/4 as many as M. G has written 3/2 as M. Write

Natalka [10]

Missing part of the question:

Write an inequality to determine the number of articles, M could have written for the school newspaper.

Answer:

The inequality: $11M > 88$

The solution: $M > 8$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

From the question, we have the following parameters:

$M + H + G > 22$

$H = \frac{1}{4}M$

$G = \frac{3}{2}M$

Required

Determine the inequality to solve for M

Substitute the values for H and G in the inequality:

$M + H + G > 22$

$M + \frac{1}{4}M + \frac{3}{2}M > 22$

Multiply through by 4

$4(M + \frac{1}{4}M + \frac{3}{2}M) > 22*4$

$4M + M + 6M > 88$

$11M > 88$

Divide both sides by 11

$M > 8$
