Let's find the difference between every two numbers. Let's start with 12,500 and -2500. We know this is a multiplication or division problem because of every other number being negative.
-2500/12,500=-0.2; let's see if the product to -2500 and -0.2 is 500. -0.2×-2500=500 500×-0.2=-100; since you only have to multiply the previous number by -.2, let's find the next two numbers.
-100×-0.2=20 20×-0.2=-4
So, the next two numbers in the pattern are 20 and -4.
Answer:
y = 3x - 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b
Step 1: Define variables
Slope <em>m</em> = 3
Random point (5, -4)
Step 2: Plug in known variables
y = 3x + b
Step 3: Find <em>b</em>
-4 = 3(5) + b
-4 = 15 + b
b = -19
Step 4: Write linear equation
y = 3x - 19
I'm pretty sure it's: 5x + 2y = –14
I believe you plug in -2 for both x's and you should get -1=-1
