-2(m + 4) = 40
The first step is to use the distributive property to clear the parenthesis
-2 * m + -2* 4 = 40
-2m - 8 = 40
next, to isolate the variable, add 8 to both sides
-2m - 8 + 8 = 40 + 8
-2m = 48
the last step is to get rid of the multiplication by -2 we will divide by -2
(-2m)/-2 = 48/-2
m = -24

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (1, -6) and (8, 9). Put
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

y-9 = \frac{15}{7} (x-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form is represented by y-y_1 = m (x-x_1). To write an equation with it, we need the slope of the line and a point the line crosses through. We already have at least one point the line crosses through, so let's figure out the slope.

To find the slope, use the slope formula \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}. x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of one point the line crosses, and x_2 and y_2 represent the x and y values of another point the line crosses. So, using the x and y values of (1, -6) and (8, 9), substitute them into the formula and solve:

\frac{(9)-(-6)}{(8)-(1)} \\= \frac{9+6}{8-1} \\= \frac{15}{7}

Thus, the slope is \frac{15}{7}.

2) Now, using the point-slope form of  y-y_1 = m (x-x_1),  substitute m, x_1, and y_1 for real values in order to write an equation in point-slope form. The m represents the slope, so substitute \frac{15}{7} in its place. The x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of one point on the line. So, choose any one of the points given - either one is fine - and substitute its x and y values for x_1 and y_1. (I chose (8,9)). This gives the following equation and answer:

y-9 = \frac{15}{7} (x-8)

A set of composite numbers less than 12 .express it in listing and set builder methods​
marusya05 [52]

Given:

A set of composite numbers less than 12.

To find:

The set by listing and set builder methods​.

Solution:

Composite number: A positive integer is called a composite number if it has at least one divisor other than 1 and itself.

Composite numbers less than 12 are 4, 6, 8, 9, 10.

By using the listing method , the given set can be expression as:

Set = {4, 6, 8, 9, 10}

The numbers 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 are greater than 1, less than 12 and non prime numbers.

By using set builder method, the given set can be expression as:

Set = \{x|x\neq P,1

Therefore, the list and set builder notation of the given set are {4, 6, 8, 9, 10} and \{x|x\neq P,1 respectively.
