She should have added 2 to both sides of the equation instead of subtracting 2.
2x -2 = 14
Add 2 to both sides:
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 8
I think it’s D. 156 degrees
notice the first term is -10, and the common difference is 3, so we add 3 to get the next term.
check the picture below.
The equation in slope-intercept is y=0.625x+7.
y = mx + b
where:
m is the slope of the line
b is the y-intercept of the line
The slope m of the line through any two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by:
The y-intercept b of the line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis. Since for point (x1, y1) we have y1 = mx1 + b, the y-intercept b can be calculated by:
b = y1 - mx<span>1. hope that helped</span>
