Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

The slope intercept line is written as y = mx + b in it's general form.

You can get the slope, m, immediately because it is given as -2

So far what you have is y = -2x + b

y intercept

To get the y intercept, use the point (-3 , 4)

x = - 3

y = 4

4 = -2*(-3) + b

4 = 6 + b                 Subtract 6 from both sides

4 - 6 = 6-6 + b

b = - 2

Line

y = -2x - 2

(a,8)

y = -2a - 2

8 = -2a - 2              Add 2 to both sides

8 +2 = -2a -2+2     Combine

10 = - 2a                 Divide by - 2

10/-2 = a

a = -5

(5,b)

y = -2x - 2

x = 5

y = b

b = -2*5 - 2

b = -10 - 2

b = - 12

​how many meters is the circumference of a circle with a radius of 20 cm?
Harman [31]
First find the circumference of the circle.
Circumference: 2 \pi r

Plug in 20 for the radius (r).
2 \pi20 = 125.66 

The circumference of the circle is 125.66 cm.
Now to find this in meters... there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter.

Divide 125.66 by 100 to find how many meters this is.
125.66 ÷ 100 = 1.26

The circle's circumference is 1.26 meters.
