Answer: 5

Step-by-step explanation:

(4,3) (2,-7)

Put it in the equation of y2 - y1 over x2 - x1

-7-3 = -10 and 2 - 4 = -2 that will give you the fraction of -10/-2

Reduce the fraction and that will give you the answer of 5, slope = 5

In slope-intercept form it would be y - 3 = 5 (x - 4)

Hope this helps! ^^

Solve: -8(x - 3) + 5x < 9(x + 12) This is Algebra 1

Flauer [41]

Answer:

x>−7

Step-by-step explanation:

left side:

-8(x-3)+5x

distribute -8 into (x-3)

-8x+24+5x

combine like terms

-3x+24

right side:

9(x+12)

distribute 9 into (x+12)

9x+108

-3x+24<9x+108

Subtract 24 on both sides

-3x< 9x+108-24

combine like terms

-3x<9x+84

Subtract 9x on both sides

-3x-9x<+84

combine like terms again

-12x<84

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverse the inequality)

(-12x)(-1)>84(-1)

12x>-84

divide both sides with 12

$\frac{12x}{12}>\frac{-84}{12}$

x>−7

hope this helps

For a set of five whole numbers, the mean is 4, the mode is 1, and the median is 5. What are the five numbers?

zmey [24]

SO we need 5 numbers that equal to 20, with 5 being the middle number, and ones being the most used number so

1 1 5 x y

According to this, x and y must equal 13 and both be bigger then 5. Because we can rule out every other number, x and y must be 6 and 7.

Your 5 numbers are 1, 1, 5, 6, 7.
