<h3>Answer:</h3>

B. 3x +y = 4

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

It is perhaps easiest to simply try the equations to see which one works.

For x=0, there are two different kinds of answers:

... A and C: -y = 4

... B and D: y = 4

Since we know y=4 when x=0 (from the point (0, 4)), we can eliminate choices A and C.

___

Using the point (1, 1), you can try choices B and D to see which works:

... B: 3·1 +1 = 4 . . . . true (put 1 where x and y are in the equation)

... D: -3·1 +1 = -2 = 4 . . . . false

The appropriate choice is the equation of B: 3x +y = 4.

_____

<em>Derive the equation from the given points</em>

There are several ways you can derive the equation. Since you have the y-intercept (the point with x=0), you can use the slope-intercept form to start.

The slope (m) is ...

... m = (change in y)/(change in x) = (4 -1)/(0 -1)

... m = -3

We know the y-intercept (b) is 4, so the slope-intercept form of the equation is ...

... y = mx +b

... y = -3x +4

Adding 3x puts this in standard form:

... 3x +y = 4

Answer:

When m = 6, 5m - 4 = 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=5m-4

Substitute:

f(6)=5(6)-4

Multiply:

f(6)= 30-4

Subtract:

f(6)= 26

When m = 6, 5m - 4 = 26.

Help with this math question thx
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Skewed to the left.

Step-by-step explanation:

The left side of the graph is at 2 and is 4 units from the middle at 6. The right side of the graph is at 9 and is 3 units from the middle. As such the graph is skewed left since it is a greater distance from the left to the center.
