We can input the point
remember that (x,y)
so we are given (-5,-18)
so when x=-5, y=-18
so
-18=-5m+2
minus 2 both sides
-20=-5m
divide both sides by -5
4=m
m=4
answer is 2nd option
First calculate the area of the floor, this would be 30*50 = 1500 square feet
Now multiply the area by the cost for each square foot, so 1500*0.5 = $750
If you would have to graph x=7, you probably know that this is a vertical line at, well, x=7.
| x | = 7 is nothing more than two vertical lines, namely x=7 or x=-7, as you already wrote down.
| x | = -8 has no (real) solutions, so there is nothing to graph.
Answer:
This represents 3 and one-third divided by two-thirds because 10/3 = 3 and 1/3.
