Steps
1. Do the point slope form
Y-Y1=4(X-X1)
Y-4=4(x-2)
Y-4=4x + (-8)
2. Add 4 on both sides
Y= 4x-4
3. Your answer is
Y=4x-4

Ater a blizzard the amount of snow on the ground melted by 3 inches one day and then another 8 inches the next day. Write an exp

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

11 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the level of ground level be g

On first day, amount of snow melted by 3 inches

So, level of ground melted= (g- 3) inches

Next day, amount of snow melted by 8 inches

So, level of ground level melted = (g- 3-8 )inches

Hence, total change in the ground level = ( g- 11) inches

Hence, amount of snow on ground level melted by 11 inches

Hence, the correct answer is 11 inches

Solve the equation and give me how you solved it and the answer

Viktor [21]

Multiplying both sides by 3, we get (3/9)*(2m-16)=(2m+4). Next, we multiply both sides by 9 and expand to get 6x-48=18m+36. Subtracting 6x and 36 from both sides, we get 12x=-48-36=-84. After that, we divide both sides by 12 to get m=-7
