Answer:  Equation of line = y=-4x+9

The slope of the line that contains the points (4, −7) and (1, 5) is -4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line that contains two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by :-

m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}

The slope of a line passing through (4, −7) and (1, 5) will be:_

m=\dfrac{5-(-7)}{1-4}\\\\\Rightarrow\ m=\dfrac{5+7}{-3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ m=\dfrac{12}{-3}\\\\\Rightarrow\ m=-4

The equation of a line passing through (a,b) and has slope m is given by :_

(y-b)=m(x-a)

Then , the equation passing through (1,5) and has slope -4 will be

(y-5)=-4(x-1)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-5=-4x+4\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=-4x+4+5\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=-4x+9

Hence, the equation of line = y=-4x+9

The slope of the line that contains the points (4, −7) and (1, 5) is -4.

Slope = (5+7)/(1-4) = 12/-3 = -4

slope = -4

y = mx + b
-7 = -4(4) + b
-7 = -16 + b
b = 9

equation
y = -4x + 9

What is 1/4=1/12+1/z
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

\boxed {z = 6}

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for the value of z:

\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{12} + \frac{1}{z}

-The variable z cannot equal to 0 since division by zero is undefined. SO, you multiply both sides by 12z, which is the least common multiple of 4, 12, and z:

3z = 12z \times (\frac{1}{12}) + 12

3z = z + 12

-Take -z and subtract it from 3z:

3z - z = z - z + 12

2z = 12

-Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{2z}{2} = \frac{12}{2}

\boxed {z = 6}

So, the value of z of 6.
