Answer:

3x-4y=-40

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We're given the equation of the line, y-4=3/4(x+8) in point-slope form (y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1}), where (x_{1},y_{1}) is a point and m is the slope)

We need to convert y-4=3/4(x+8) into standard form (ax+by=c, where a, b, and c are integer coefficients; a CANNOT be 0, and CANNOT be negative).

So we need to get y-4=3/4(x+8) out of point-slope form

We can do this by converting the equation into slope-intercept form, which is y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

to do this, we need to isolate y by itself in the equation

first, do the distributive property and distribute 3/4 on the right side

y-4=3/4x+6

add 4 to both sides

y=3/4x+10

now the equation is in slope-intercept form, but remember, we want it in standard form

x and y are on the same side in standard form, so let's subtract 3/4 x from both sides

-3/4x+y=10

however we aren't done; in standard form, the coefficients need to be integers (whole numbers), and a (the coefficient in front of x) CANNOT be negative

so let's multiply both sides by -4 to clear the fraction and change the sign of a

-4(-3/4x+y)=-4(10)

do the distributive property

<u>3x-4y=-40</u>

Hope this helps! :)

-2/3 x -9/8 x -4/5 x -1
Lerok [7]

Answer: 0.6

Step-by-step explanation: First, you want so seperate the equations in parenthesis to make solving the equation easier.

(-2/3x-9/8x )-(4/5x)-(1)

So (-2/3x-9/8x) equals -11/24x

And  -11/24x-4/5x equals -151/120x

So -151/120x-1 ends up being 0.6.

75=-5(3+6m) I need this​
alisha [4.7K]
Are you finding m? If so here is the answer:

75 = -5(3 + 6m)

Distribute:
75 = -15 - 30m

Add 15 to both sides:
75 = -15 - 30m
+15 +15
90 = -30m

Divide by -30 on both sides:
90/-30 = (-30m)/-30

You should get: m = -3

Which function passes through the points (2, 15) and (3, 26)?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by finding the slope of the function that passes through the points (2,15) and (3,26). We can use the "formula" rise over run.

So we have:

(26-15)/(3-2) which gives us 11 as our slope. Now we must find the y intercept!

It is -7.

So the answer is B
