Answer:

−38

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

−(6x+8)=4(17−x)

−6x+−8=(4)(17)+(4)(−x)(Distribute)

−6x+−8=68+−4x

−6x−8=−4x+68

Step 2: Add 4x to both sides.

−6x−8+4x=−4x+68+4x

−2x−8=68

Step 3: Add 8 to both sides.

−2x−8+8=68+8

−2x=76

Step 4: Divide both sides by -2.

−2x−2=76−2

x=−38

Equation that has a slope of -4 and passes through the point (-2, 2) show work too
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

y=-4x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Slope is given as -4, so:

y=-4x+b

To find b, sub in the point we were given (-2,2):

2=-4(-2)+b

2=8+b

b=2-8=-6

So we have: y=-4x-6

Identify whether the function graphed has an odd or even degree and a positive or negative leading coefficient.
sukhopar [10]

Answer: odd and positive

How to find number of degrees: Count the number of turns and add one. In this case you have 4 curves, so 4+1= 5.

How to find leading coefficient: look at the RIGHT side of the graph, the arrow is going towards positive infinity, thus making the leading coefficient positive.
