Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
They give us the slope so this makes it a lot easier.
Slope intercept formula is
y=mx+b
(m) is slope
(b) is y intercept
we can apply our slope into the formula
y=-3/2x+b
Now we can replace (y) with the (y) from the ordered pair they gave us (4, 10), and replace the (x) with the (x) from the ordered pair they gave us
(4, 10)
10=-3/2(4)+b
Now solve
10=-6+b
Add 6 to each side
16=b
Now we we put both our slope and intercept into the formula.
Start by distributing the exponent to each of the terms in . This will become
, and
. Now, the expression is:
.
We can now simplify the bottom to read: because when multiplying variables raised to an exponent, we add the exponents. The expression now looks like:
The 2/8 simplifies to 1/4:
Now, we have two u terms on the top and bottom. When dividing variables raised to an exponent, we subtract the exponents. However, since 3-5=-2, the term will be on the bottom to avoid the negative exponent. The final answer is:
Hope this makes sense!!
