Lets get stated :)

2x ( -1 ) - 4 = - 2
- 2x - 4 = - 2

Bring 4 to the right-hand side { You do addition to the opposite }
- 2x = - 2 + 4
- 2x = 2

Take - 2 to the other side in order to isolate x { Do division when you see multiplication }
\frac{-2x}{-2} = \frac{2}{-2}
x = -1

Quick check:
2 ( - 1 ) ( - 1 ) - 4 = - 2
2 - 4 = - 2
- 2 = - 2
So it is the correct value

Which of the following are point slope equations of the line going through (-3, -5) and (2, 4). Help is appreciated!​
ki77a [65]

Answer:

A and F

Step-by-step explanation:

first figure out the slope.

4-(-5)/2-(-3)= 9/5

slope: 9/5

y-y1=m(x-x1)

you substitute either coordinate for the second variables. we automatically take out any slopes that have a negative because the slope is positive.

C, D, E all have negative slopes so it is wrong.

B does not work because a negative times a negative is a positive. the equation shows it to be negative so it is wrong.

A & F fit the solution.
