If you would like to solve the equation -5x - 25 = 78, you should do this using the following steps:
<span>-5x - 25 = 78
</span>-5x - 25 + 25 = 78 + 25
-5x + 0 = 103
-5x = 103 /(-5)
x = 103 / (-5)
x = - 103/5 = - 20.6
The error was already made at step 1.
G because she need to sell 20 vases because the cost is 450 and if you divide it by 23 for the price the vases will be sold for it comes to 19.57 and you can't sell .57 of a vase you have to round up to make more than the money spent
Answer:
- m = (2-(-2))/(2-(-2)) = 4/4 = 1
- y +2 = 1(x +2)
Step-by-step explanation:
The point-slope form of the equation for a line with slope m through point (x1, y1) is ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1)
To find the slope of the line, find the ratio of the difference in y-values of the points to the difference in corresponding x-values. Here, the slope is ...
m = (2 -(-2))/(2 -(-2)) = 4/4 = 1 . . . work to compute slope
The problem statement tells you x1 = -2, y1 = -2. Putting the numbers in to the point-slope form gives ...
y -(-2) = 1(x -(-2))
y + 2 = x + 2 . . . equation form with m, (x1, y1) filled in

The answer at the top leaves the slope shown as 1. We don't know how much simplification you are expected to do. Obviously, this <em>could</em> be simplified to y=x, but then the use of (-2, -2) for the point would not be obvious.
