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

The graph of y = |2 is shifted to the left by 6 units.<br> What is the equation of the new graph?
Tasya [4]

Answer:

From your question, I am assuming you are talking about an absolute value graph. In this case the answer would be y = |2 + 6|

Step-by-step explanation: Always remember, when you are graphing absolute value graphs:

When you shift left or right, you put the amount you are shifting inside the absolute value sign.

When you are shifting up or down, you put the amount you are shifting outside the absolute value sign.

When shifting left on a graph, you usually think of subtraction. However, when dealing with absolute value graphs, when you are shifting left, you use addition, as you can see in this problem.

The same goes for right. You use subtraction when shifting right, contrary to what you may think.

However, when you go up, you still use addition, and when you shift down, you still use subtraction.

Which term is a term in this expression?<br><br> A. x+4<br> B. -7<br> C. -3<br> D. -3x
svp [43]

Answer: -3x is a term

Step-by-step explanation: Any number that has a variable after it is a term. Another way to look at it is any grouping of a number and a variable. If the number stands alone, it's not a term, and if it is being added to something, it is an equation.
