Answer:
<h2>3x - y + 7 = 0</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

m - slope
b - y-intercept
Put the given y-intercept b = 7 and the coordinates of the point (-2, 1) to the equation:
<em>subtract 7 from both sides</em>
<em>divide both sides by (-2)</em>

We have the equation:

Convert it to the general form
:
<em>subtract 3x and 7 from both sides</em>
<em>change the signs</em>

Constant of proportionality is the constant value of the two proportional quantities, in this problem p and s, where 4 is the factor of proportionality because it is constant or k.
In simple terms, p is in direct proportion to s wherein the increase or decrease in value of s results to the increase or decrease in value of p with 4 the only factor remaining unchanged.
In the above problem, the number 4 is derived from the word square. We all know that a square has 4 sides of equal lengths, therefore, the perimeter is equivalent to the product of 4 and its lenght.
They give us the length of side of the square which is 3-7x.
To get an expression for the perimeter that is expressed as a product we have to multiply the expression 3-7x by four since every square has four sides. This will give us an expression of 4(3-7x). We than can use the distributive property to multiply everything inside the parenthesis by 4. This will give us an expression of 12-28x.
Answer:
260,000
Step-by-step explanation:
The value decreases by 40,000 per year (500000-42000/2 years) the value will decrease by 240000 in six (4 years plus 2 years already passed) years. 6 x 40,000 =240000
So, the value should be 260,000 (500000-240000)
Or
year 1 500000-40000=460000
year 2 460000-40000=420000
year 3 420000-40000=380000
year 4 380000-40000=340000
year 5 340000-40000=300000
year 6 300000-40000=260000
