Answer: look at pic
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
m:slope
b:y-intercept
m=-1 (slope) given in the question
y=-1x+b
Plug in the given point (-1,-4) then solve for b
-4=-1(-1)+b
b=-5
y=-x-5
then using the x-intercept and y-intercept you could graph the line
y-intercept = b = -5 (0,-5)
x-intercept (plug in y=0)
0=-x-5
x=-5 (-5,0)
Answer:
x = -6
Step-by-step explanation:
We recognize that 25 = 5^2 and also 125 = 5^3, thus we can write:

<em>Now we can use the property of exponents [
] to simplify it:</em>

We equate the exponents (since we have similar base) to find the value of x:
4x + 6 = 3x
4x - 3x = -6
x = -6
