y=mx+b is the equation of a line;
m=slope , b= y-intercept
m=4 ; so we have : y=4x+b
We are give a set of points which it passes through, we can simply plug them in:
-2 = 4(3)+b (3 is the x and -2 is the y)
We get -2 = 12 +b .... -14=b
our final equation is : y=4x-14
Answer:
37,145
Step-by-step explanation:
43,700×15%= 6,555
43,700-6,555= 37,145
the previous population was 37,145
Answer:
m=31/2, n=-24. (31/2, -24).
Step-by-step explanation:
2m+n=7
4m+3n=-10
-------------------
n=7-2m
4m+3(7-2m)=-10
4m+21-6m=-10
-2m=-10-21
-2m=-31
2m=31
m=31/2
2(31/2)+n=7
31+n=7
n=7-31
n=-24
