Point-slope form : y-y₁=m(x-x₁) ; Where m=slope

Passes through (6, -8) ; Slope is -2

Simply plug everything in :)

y - (-8) = -2(x - 6)

Simplify.

y + 8 = -2x + 12 → Answer

The answer from Openstudy is incorrect, because our slope is negative, not positive.

~Hope I helped!~

Jenny watched a movie about aliens who never stop growing. Every alien is 10 centimeters tall at birth and grows exactly 8 centi
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

h = 10 + 8y

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Height of ght if all alien at birth = 10cm

Growth rate per year = 8 cm

Let:

y = number of years since birth

h = alien's height in centimeter

Relationship between h and y

h = Initial height + (growth rate per year*number of years)

h = 10 + 8y

What is the best first step for solving the given system using substitution while avoiding fractions? =9x+4x=10 -9x+3y=3
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

  Solve for y in the second equation

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume your system is ...

  • -9x +4y = 10
  • -9x +3y = 3

Dividing <em>the </em><em>second equation</em> by 3 gives ...

  -3x +y = 1

so an expression for y without fractions can be found by <em>solving for y</em>, that is, by adding 3x:

  y = 3x +1

_____

<em>Comment on alternate solution</em>

We'd be tempted to solve the first equation for -9x and substitute for that.

  -9x = 10 -4y

  (10 -4y) +3y = 3 . . . . . substitute for -9x

  -y = -7 . . . . . . . . . . . . . simplify, subtract 10

  y = 7 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by -1

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

      90

-------------------

10 + (3^2 - 4)

first we look at the parenthesis. take 3 to the second power, and it equals 9

     90

------------------

10 + (9 - 4)

next, still in the parenthesis you subtract 4 from 9

   90

--------------

10 + (5)

next add 10 plus 5

90

-------   =       6

 15

now divide 90 by 15 and you get your answer, 6
