Equation of a line is given by

m (x - x¹) = (y - y¹)

  • where m is the gradient
  • m \:  = ( {y}^{2}  -  {y}^{1} ) \:  \div ({x}^{2}  -  {x}^{1} )

where (x¹ , y¹ ) and (x² , y²)

(-2,-2 ) and (2 , -4)

  • m = ( -4 - (-1) ) ÷ ( 2 - (-2) )

  • m = ( -4 + 1 ) ÷ ( 2 + 2 )

  • m = ( -3 ) ÷ ( 4 )
  • m \:  =  -  \frac{3}{4}

but equation of a line is given by

m (x - x¹) = ( y - y¹)

  • -  \frac{3}{4} (x - ( - 2)) \:  =  \: (y \:  - ( - 2))
  • -  \frac{3}{4} (x + 2) \:  =  \: (y \:  +  \: 2)
  • expanding the bracket

  • -  \frac{3}{4} x \:  -  \:   \frac{3}{2}  \:  = y \:  +  \: 2
  • y \:  =  \:  - \frac{3}{4} x \:  -  \:  \frac{3}{2}  \:  -  \: 2  \\ \\  y \:  =  -  \frac{3}{4} x \:  -  \:  \frac{7}{2}  \\ \\  {y} \:  =  \frac{ - 3x \:  -  \: 14}{4}
  • multiply \: by \:  4
  • 4 \:  \times  \: y \:  = 4 \:  \times  \:  \frac{ - 3x \:  - 14}{4}
  • 4y \:  =  \:  - 3x \:  -  \: 14
  • Equation of the line is

  • 4y = -3x - 14

deff fn [24]

Answer:

This is true

Step-by-step explanation:

10x1 is 10. 10x10 is 100. but if u did 100x10 you would add the amount of zeros total. which would be 1000. so 400x10 is 4000

Simplify. (2/5)^4... words to fill in minimum space
Stella [2.4K]
When you have a power to a fraction, you simply take it by the top and then by the bottm.

So, split it into two: (2)^4 and (5)^4

Solve: (2)^4=16
(5)^4=625

So the fraction is: 16/625

Check to see if it reduces: It doesn't. (Odd and even numbers that have no common multiples).

Therefore, that's the answer.
