An equation represents a line that passes through (-2, 4) and has a slope of 2/5 is y-4 = 2/5(x+2)
<h3>Equation of a line</h3>
The equation of a line in point-slope form is expressed as;
y-y1 = m(x - x1)
where
m is the slope
(x1, y1) is any pint on the line
Substitute the given parameter
y - 4 = 2/5(x-(-2))
y-4 = 2/5(x+2)
Hence an equation represents a line that passes through (-2, 4) and has a slope of 2/5 is y-4 = 2/5(x+2)

I believe it is 3. since it touches the x-axis in three areas
Answer:
Option B is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Hope that helped u
Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height
Plug in what we know.
78 = 1/2 × b × 9¾
Multilply each side by 2 to get rid of the 1/2...
156 = b × 9¾
Write 9¾ as an improper fraction.
(9¾ = 9 + 3/4 = (9×4)/4 + 3/4 = 36/4 + 3/4 = 39/4)
156 = b × 39/4
Multiply each side by 4...
624 = b × 39
Divide each side by 39...
16 = b
Done! The length of the base of the triangle is <u>16</u> inches.
