The point-slope form of the equation of the line is:

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

So, (y + 2) = - 1/3 (x - 4) in the point-slope form is:

 [y - (-2) ] = (-1/3) [ x - 4 ]

You must, then realize that the line passes through the point (4,-2) and its slope is - 1 /3.

That slope, -1 / 3, means that the function is decresing (because the slope is negative),  and it decreases one unit when x increases 3 units.

Now you can fill in the blanks in this way:

Plot the point  (4, -2), move 1 unit down, and 3 units over to find the next point on the line.

Find the smaller of 2 consecutive intergers, x, if the sum of the smaller and 6 times the larger is -29. Write an equation to de
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

x = -5 and x+1( consecutive integer) = -4

obviously x is smaller than the next integer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first integer be x

hence the consecutive integer is x +1

according to the give condition

x + 6(x + 1) = -29

x + 6x + 6 = -29

7x = -29 -6

7 x = -35

x = -35/7

x = -5

x + 1 = -5 + 1 = -4

GOOD LUCK FOR THE FUTURE! : )
