What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and

den301095 [7]

Answer:

The equation of line is: $\mathbf{4x-3y=-18}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find an equation of the line that passes through the points (-6, -2) and (-3, 2)?

The equation of line in slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$

where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We need to find slope and y-intercept.

Finding Slope

Slope can be found using formula: $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have $x_1=-6,y_1=-2, x_2=-3, y_2=2$

Putting values and finding slope

$Slope=\frac{2-(-2)}{-3-(-6)}\\Slope=\frac{2+2}{-3+6} \\Slope=\frac{4}{3}$

So, we get slope: $m=\frac{4}{3}$

Finding y-intercept

Using point (-6,-2) and slope $m=\frac{4}{3}$ we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\-2=\frac{4}{3}(-6)+b\\-2=4(-2)+b\\-2=-8+b\\b=-2+8\\b=6$

So, we get y-intercept b= 6

Equation of required line

The equation of required line having slope $m=\frac{4}{3}$ and y-intercept b = 6 is

$y=mx+b\\y=\frac{4}{3}x+6$

Now transforming in fully reduced form:

$y=\frac{4x+6*3}{3} \\y=\frac{4x+18}{3} \\3y=4x+18\\4x-3y=-18$

So, the equation of line is: $\mathbf{4x-3y=-18}$

A microscope can magnify the object it is looking at 10×4 times. How many times is that? (MCC.8.EE.3) A. 40,000 times B. 40 time

damaskus [11]

Answer:

10×4 = 40

10^4 = 10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

10^4 is another way to write 10⁴ = 10·10·10·10 = 10,000.

Essentially, the exponent tells you how many places to the right of the leading digit the decimal point lies (here, the number of zeros in the number).

_____

<em>Comment on the answer choice</em>

The appropriate answer depends on what you mean by your problem statement. Some microscopes magnify 40 times; others magnify 10,000 times, so we cannot tell the appropriate answer using our knowledge of microscopes.

John, Sam & Rob were playing cards. John scored x points,Sam scored 3 fewer than John. Rob scored twice Sam's points. togeth

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: 2x-6

Work Shown:

john = x

sam = x-3 since he scored 3 fewer than john

rob = 2*(sam) = 2(x-3) = 2*x-2*3 = 2x-6
