No, these are not equal because:-

2(x - 2) = 2*x - 2*2 = 2x - 4

2x - 2 is not equal to 2x - 4

Answer: Not equal

Slope = 4/3, (-2, 11)

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

y = $\frac{4}{3}$ x + $\frac{41}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y-intercept )

here m = $\frac{4}{3}$ , hence

y = $\frac{4}{3}$ x + c ← is the partial equation

to find c substitute (- 2, 11) into the partial equation

11 = - $\frac{8}{3}$ + c ⇒ c = $\frac{41}{3}$

y = $\frac{4}{3}$ x + $\frac{41}{3}$ ← equation of line
