Answer:

The answer is

<h2>y =  -  \frac{6}{5} x - 8  \\</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line in point slope form when given the slope and a point we use the formula

y -  y_1 = m(x -  x_1) \\

where

m is the slope

( x1 , y1) is the point

From the question the point is (-5,-2) and the slope is - 6/5

The equation of the line is

y + 2 =  -  \frac{6}{5} (x + 5) \\ y + 2  =  -  \frac{6}{5} x - 6 \\ y =  -  \frac{6}{5} x - 6 - 2

We have the final answer as

y =  -  \frac{6}{5} x - 8  \\

Hope this helps you

Yuki888 [10]
M = 90 kg,
On Mars:  g = 3.71 m/s² 
Weight = m · g = 90 kg · 3.71 m/s² = 333.9 N
1 N = 0.2248 lbf
333.9 · 0.2248 = 75.06072 lbf ≈ 75 lbf

Carlos says that 17.43 divided by 100 is the same as 174.3 times 0.01<br> Is he correct? Explain
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find 17.43 divided by 100

\frac{17.43}{100}=0.1743

Step 2

Find 174.3 times 0.01

174.3*0.01=\frac{174.3}{100}=1.743

Compare

0.1743\neq 1.743
