-2m - 5m - 8 = 3 + (-7) + m
-7m - 8 = 3 - 7 + m
-7m - 8 = m - 4 <=== here is one
m - 4 = -7m - 8 <=== another one
-8 - 7m = -4 + m <== and another one
square root of 16 would be 4
4 x 4 = 16
Okay, let me just make this a little clearer. Hopefully, this is what you meant:
A. y - 8 = -4(x + 4)
B. y - 8 = 4(x + 4)
C. y + 8 = 4(x - 4)
D. y + 8 = -4(x - 4)

This can also be written as y2 - y1 = m(x2 - x1).
Your M is your slope.
Both A and D have their m as a negative 4. Because you are looking for a positive slope, immediately cancel those answers.
* note that you could have also put them in a more standard form and discovered m which is the x in bx.
Now, you are looking for an equation that contains (4,-8).
Because it is written as y2-y1, your y's are actually points if you were to find another slope or something. This part is a bit hard to explain, but -8 is only found in the y coordinate place in answer B. Your answer would be B. For more explanation on that, there's this great site called coolmath.com and if you search for finding the equation of two points, it explains it much better on there, but I would not want to plagiarize.
The answer is B.
Answer:
Sure! I'll look you up!
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:number of cupcakes sold is 13
Number of cookies sold is 27
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of cupcakes that Jane sold.
Let y represent the number of cookies that Jane sold.
Each cupcake sold for $2.25 and each cookie sold for $0.50. At the end of the day, Jean had sold $42.75 worth of cookies and cupcakes.
This means that
2.25x + 0.5y = 42.75 - - - - - - - - - -1
she sold 40 cupcakes and cookies combined, it means that
x + y = 40
Substituting x = 40 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2.25(40 - y) + 0.5y = 42.75
90 - 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75
- 2.25y + 0.5y = 42.75 - 90
- 1.75y = - 47.25
y = - 47.35/-1.75
y = 27
x = 40 - y
x = 40-27 = 13
.
