Answer:

Point-slope form: y-4=2(x+1)

Slope intercept form: y=2x+6

I hope this helps!

Answer:

y-4=2(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form is equal to

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

where y and y1 are the known y coordinates of two points on the line, and x and x1 are the known x coordinates of two points on the line. All we need now is m, which is the slope:

4-2=m(-1-(-2))

We can simplify negative one minus negative two as positive 1.

4-2=m(1)

4 minus 2 is 2, so m times 1 is 2. That means m is 2.

Now, we have the slope, so we can convert to point-slope form using one of the two points. Let's use (-1, 4). We can plug those values in for x1 and y1:

y-4=2(x+1)

What equation has slope of 3 and passes through 0,-2
suter [353]

Answer:

y = 3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>use y = mx + b</em>

y = -2

x = 0

m (slope) = 3

b (y-intercept) = -2, <em><u>since the point (0,-2) passes through the y a</u></em>xis.

<em>put is as slope-intercept form:</em>

y = 3x - 2

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

5 cups of peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

My reasoning is if 1/2 cup of raisins is 2 1/2 cup of peanuts, you basically double the amount. So 1/2 becomes 1 cup and 2 1/2 becomes 5 cups. So 5 cups of peanuts for 1 cup of raisins.
