Answer:

The equation of the line that passes  through the point (2, -1) and has a slope of -3 will be:

  • y = -3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

where

  • m is the slope
  • b is the y-intercept

Given

  • The point (2, -1)
  • Slope m = -3

substituting m = -3 and the point (2, -1) in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

-1 = -3(2)+b

-1 = -6 + b

b = -1 + 6

b = 5

Thus, the y-intercept form of the line equation is b = 5

now substituting b = 5 and m = -3 in the slope-intercept form of the line equation

y = mx+b

y = -3x + 5

Thus, the equation of the line that passes  through the point (2, -1) and has a slope of -3 will be:

  • y = -3x + 5

Simplify <br><br> i will give u 15 points instead of 10
Anit [1.1K]

Hello,

First of all , let's see that

4=2^2\leq 5\leq 9=3^2\\\\2\leq \sqrt{5}\leq 3\\ \\\text{so } (1-\sqrt{5})\leq 0\\ \\\\\text{Then } \sqrt{(1-\sqrt{5})^2}=|1-\sqrt{5}|=\sqrt{5}-1

So,

\sqrt{6(1-\sqrt{5})^2}=\sqrt{6}(\sqrt{5}-1)=\sqrt{30}-\sqrt{6}

Thanks
