A linear equation in slope intercept form that passes through the points (-11 -5) and (1 -2) is:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Explicit formula for sequence

$A(n)=9+(n-1)(-5)$

To find the 7th term we have to put n=7

So,

$A(7)=9+(7-1)(-5)\\=9+(6)(-5)\\=9-30\\=-21$

A linear equation in slope intercept form that passes through the points (-11 -5) and (1 -2) is:

$y=\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{9}{4}$

N/5=18 what does N equal

netineya [11]

We have n/5 = 18
to get the value of n, we need to get rid of the 5 in the denominator. to do so, we will multiply both sides of the equation by 5
(n/5)(5) = (18)(5)
n = 18*5 = 90

ratelena [41]

Option D would probably be the right choice. Because x is the variable for coins, there would be x amount of quarters, and because there are 150 coins, 150 - x would be the remainder.

The slope of the line below is -3 use the coordinates of the labeled point to find a point slope equation

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

y = -3x + 8

Step-by-step explanation:

(5,-7), slope is -3

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y₁ = -7

x₁ = 5

m = -3

y + 7 = -3(x - 5)

y + 7 = -3x + 15

y = -3x + 8
