Let n represent the number.

"the sum of a number and 7" is (n+7)

Three times "the sum of a number and 7" is 3(n+7)

"is" translates to "=".

"five times the number" is 5n

Two less than "five times the number" is 5n-2

Your equation is
  3(n+7) = 5n-2

A line passes through the point (-2, 4), and its y-intercept is (0,6). What is the equation of the line that is
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

y = -x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The line that passes through the points (-2,4) and (0,6) has a slope of 1, and a y intercept of 6. The equation to the first line is y = x + 6. and perpendicular lines always have the opposite, reciprocal slope of the other line. So the slope for the second line would be -1. A line with the slope of -1 and a point of (5,4) would contain the points (5,4) , (4,5) , (3,6) , (2,7) , (1,8) , and (0,9) , which is the y intercept for the second line. So the equation for the second line would be y = -x + 9
