Answer:

y+6 = -5/4 (x-8)  (this is point slope form)

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1 = m (x-x1)

y- (-6) = -5/4 (x-8)

y+6 = -5/4 (x-8)

Write the equation of a line in slope intercept form of a line that has a slope of 1/2 and contains (-4,1)
Delicious77 [7]
The general form of the line is:
y = mx + c where:
m is the slope 
c is the y-intercept

Now, we are given that the slope = 1/2.
The equation now became:
y = (1/2) x + c

Now, we need to get the y-intercept. We are given that (-4 ,1) belongs to the line. Therefore, this point satisfies the equation of the line. Based on this, we will substitute with this point in the equation above and solve for c as follows:
y = (1/2) x + c
1 = (1/2)(-4) + c
1 = -2 + c
c = 1+2
c = 3

Based on the above, the equation of the line is:
y = (1/2) x + 3

The product of two consecutive integers is equal to 14 more than 4 times the sum. This can be simplified to x²-7x-18=0. What are
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

-1 and -2, or 9 and 10

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the smaller integer:

x (x + 1) = 14 + 4 (x + x + 1)

x² + x = 14 + 4 (2x + 1)

x² + x = 14 + 8x + 4

x² − 7x − 18 = 0

Factor using AC method:

(x − 9) (x + 2) = 0

x = -2 or 9

x is the smaller integer, so the larger integers are -1 and 10.  Check each pair of solutions.

-1 and -2:

(-2) (-1) = 14 + 4 (-2 + -1)

2 = 14 + 4 (-3)

2 = 2

9 and 10:

(9) (10) = 14 + 4 (9 + 10)

90 = 14 + 4 (19)

90 = 90

Both solutions work.

Reika [66]

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. The inequality for this scenario in standard form is 2x + 3y > 30.

<h3>What are inequalities?</h3>

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. Also, it helps us to compare the non-equal expressions so that an equation can be formed.

It is mostly denoted by the symbol <, >, ≤, and ≥.

Let the safety counts be represented by x, while the field goal count is represented by y.

Part A: The inequality for this scenario in standard form.

2x + 3y > 30

Part B: The inequality in slope-intercept form.

2x + 3y > 30

3y > 30 - 2x

y > 10 - (2/3)x

y < (2/3)x - 10

PartC: The inequality is represented below.
