3y-12=-30
3y=-30+12
3y=-18
y=-18/3
y=-6.
Answer: A.
Point form: (80,120)
X=80, Y=120
The slope formula is y=mx+b. Y is a variable. m is the actual slope. It tells you how much the x will move. For example, if a slope was 2x, x would move up 2 and over 1. If the slope was 1/2 x, x would move up 1 and over 2. A way to remember slope is rise over run. X is a variable. B is a point on the y-intercept that is will the line will start. An example is y=x+3. The y-intercept is 3 and x would move up one and over one.
One can solve this by first using order of operations, and then combining like terms.
First is parenthesis
9x + 2x(9) - 2(9x)
Now we do the multiplication
9x + 18x - 18x
Now we combine like terms
9x
