What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (2,-4) and has a slope of -2

Mathematics
1 answer:
kvv77 [185]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The answer is

\huge y =  - 2x

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation of a line when given the slope and a point we use the formula

y -  y_1 = m(x -  x_1)

From the question we have

y + 4 =  - 2(x - 2) \\ y + 4 =  - 2x + 4 \\ y =  - 2x + 4 - 4

We have the final answer as

<h3>y = -2x</h3>

Hope this helps you

What are the solutions of the quadratic equation 4x2 - 8x – 12 = 0?
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

see bottom

Step-by-step explanation:

divide through by 4

x2 - 2x - 3 = 0

x2 - 3x + x - 3 = 0

(x2 - 3x) + (x - 3) = 0

x(x - 3) + 1(x - 3) = 0

(x + 1) (x - 3) = 0

x + 1 = 0 and x - 3 = 0

x = -1 and x = 3

Which data set could be represented by the box plot shown below?
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

the lowest point of the box plot is at 1  and the highest is at 19, so by that it can't be A.

The box plot shows 12 being the median so that automatically leaves C but just to make sure the first half would be 6 and half of the last part would be 16 if that makes sense.
