2x^2 + -7x^2 = -5x^2
-9x + 4x = -5x
3 + -2 = 1
put back together
-5x^2 - 5x +1
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
answer: y = -5 + 19
We can use the point-slope formula to find an equation to solve this problem. The point-slope formula states: (y−y1)=m(x−x1)
Where m is the slope and (x1y1) is a point the line passes through.
Susbtituting the slope and values from the point from the problem gives:
(y−−1)=−5(x−4)
(y+1)=−5(x−4)
We can also solve this for the slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is: y=mx+b
Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept value.
Substitute the slope from the problem for m and the values of the point from the problem for x and y and solve for b:
−1=(−5⋅4)+b
−1=−20+b
20−1=20−20+b
19=0+b
19=b
We can substitute for m and b in the formula to find the equation:
y=−5x+19
