Write the point-slope equation of the line that goes through (1, 4) with a slope of -10

sammy [17]

Answer:

y-4=-10(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form is:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\m-slope\\(x_1,y_1)-point$

We are given the slope of -10 and the point (1,4). So:

m = -10

x1 = 1

y1= 4

Replace the appropriate values:

$y-4=-10(x-1)$

So, y-4=-10(x-1) should be the point-slope equation.

Solve for x. Express the answer in simplest form. <br>2/1 = 8x - 2/ 9

oksano4ka [1.4K]

2=8x-2/9
add 2/9 to both sides
2 and 2/9=8x
2=18/9
2 and 2/9=18/9+2/9=20/9
20/9=8x
multiply both sides by 9
20=72x
divide boht isdes by 72
20/72=x=5/18

What is the slope of the line y = -5x +1 ?

laila [671]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember the slope intercept form:

y = mx + b

m = Slope value

b = y-intercept

So in this case,

y = (-5)x + b

m = -5

b = 1

Thus the answer is -5
