Answer:
the slope is -2/3
and the y intercept is 12
Step-by-step explanation:
slope intercept form
y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
y = 12 -2/3x
y = -2/3x + 12
the slope is -2/3
and the y intercept is 12
Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to subtract 180 and 117 which is 63.
1. x is less then or equal to -1 or x is greater then or equal to 5.
2. x is greater then -4 and x is less than or equal to -1
The reason it is equal to or not is because above the original number there is a dot. If it is not filled in, it is considered open. This would leave it as greater than or less than. If it were filled in, it would be considered closed. Leaving it as greater than or equal to or less than or equal to.

Answer: x > 2</h3>
Work Shown:
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < - 18
x > -18/(-9)
x > 2
The inequality sign flips when dividing both sides by a negative number.
Here's another approach you could take.
5x - 14x < - 18
-9x < -18
0 < -18+9x
18 < 9x
9x > 18
x > 18/9
x > 2
It's a slightly longer pathway, but it avoids a sign flip when you divide both sides by the positive number 9.
The sign flip happens two steps earlier when going from 18 < 9x to 9x > 18. In other words, A < B is the same as B > A.
