1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
y +3 = 1/2(x +4)
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope is given by the formula ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
m = (1 -(-3))/(4 -(-4)) = 4/8 = 1/2
The point-slope form of the equation for a line is ...
y -y1 = m(x -x1)
Filling in the known values, this is ...
y -(-3) = 1/2(x -(-4))
y +3 = 1/2(x +4)

Answer:
x>−7
Step-by-step explanation:
left side:
-8(x-3)+5x
distribute -8 into (x-3)
-8x+24+5x
combine like terms
-3x+24
right side:
9(x+12)
distribute 9 into (x+12)
9x+108
-3x+24<9x+108
Subtract 24 on both sides
-3x< 9x+108-24
combine like terms
-3x<9x+84
Subtract 9x on both sides
-3x-9x<+84
combine like terms again
-12x<84
Multiply both sides by -1 (reverse the inequality)
(-12x)(-1)>84(-1)
12x>-84
divide both sides with 12
x>−7
