Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Equation of a line is given as:
y = mx + b
Where
m is the slope
and
b is the y-intercept (y-axis cutting point)
Since we know slope is -4, we can write:
y= mx + b
y = -4x+ b
Given the point (-2,7) , we can say:
x = -2
and
y = 7
Plugging these 2 values, we can solve for b:
y = -4x + b
7 = -4(-2) + b
7 = 8 + b
b = 7 - 8
b = -1
Now, we have the equation:

Answer:
true
Step-by-step explanation:
What you gotta take from this problem:
What Joe got during break =

What his sister gave him =

What he has total = 10 tadpoles.
Now to assemble this equation:

Now combine like terms to get

Subtract 2 on each side of the equation to get

Now you would divide 5 on each side and get

, however since you can't have a .6 of a tadpole, you would have to round it up to 2.
