Answer: Choice A
y + 1 = -3(x+2)
=============================
Explanation:
Let's look through the answer choices.
Choices C and D show that the point (2,1) is on the line. But the graph does not show this. So we can rule out choices C and D.
With choice A, the slope is negative and choice B has a positive slope.
The answer must be choice A because the line is going downhill as we move from left to right.
--------------
A common method is to pick two points on the line and compute the slope using the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Once you know the slope, you would use point slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1)

Answer:
10th term of the sequence = 0.537
Step-by-step explanation:
First three terms of the sequence are → 5, 4,
..........
Ratio of 2nd and 1st term of the sequence = 
Ratio of 3rd and 2nd term of the sequence = 
= 
Therefore, ratio between every successive term to the previous term is common.
Common ratio 'r' = 
First term of the sequence 'a' = 5
nth term of a geometric sequence = 
Therefore, nth term of the given term will be 
Now we have to find the 10 term of the given sequence.
For n = 10,

= 0.53687
≈ 0.537
Therefore, 10th term of the sequence is 0.537
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Like terms mean same variable. it doesnt really matter if its negative in the front.
