Answer:

x -3y -7 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The general form of the equation for a line is ...

ax +by +c = 0

where a, b, c are mutually prime and the leading coefficient is greater than zero.

The general form equation for a line with slope m = rise/run through point (h, k) can be found by simplifying ...

rise(x -h) -run(y -k) = 0 . . . . where run has the sign of the slope

For the given point and slope, we have ...

1(x -1) -3(y -(-2)) = 0

x -3y -7 = 0

Simplify the difference. (–7x – 5x^4 + 5) – (–7x^4 – 5 – 9x)

Answer: $2x^4+2x+10$

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to remember the mulplication of signs:

$(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-$

Knowing this, you can distributive the negative sign. Then you get:

$(-7x- 5x^4 + 5) - (-7x^4 - 5 - 9x)=-7x- 5x^4 + 5 +7x^4 + 5 + 9x$

Now you need to add the like terms. Then:

$=2x+2x^4+10$

Finally, you can order the polynomial obtained in descending order. Therefore, the answer is:

$=2x^4+2x+10$
