Y + 2 = -2(x - 5)
Simplify.
y + 2 = -2x + 10
Subtract 2 from both sides.
y = -2x + 10 - 2
Simplify.
y = -2x + 8 → Slope-intercept form
Our answer is the second option : y=-2x+8
~Hope I helped!~
154cm squared this is the only right answer
Answer:
h = -t+20
After 8 hours the candle will be 12 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 2 points (time, inches)
(3,17) and (5,15)
We can find the slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (15-17)/(5-3)
= -2/2
= -1
We can use point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
Replace y with h and x with t
h-17 = -1 (t-3)
Distribute
h-17 = -t+3
Add 17 to each side
h-17+17 = -t+3+17
h = -t+20
