6(-3-4y)
-18-24y
(Multiply 6 by both numbers)
For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

Where:
m: It is the slope of the line
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
We have the following points through which the line passes:

We find the slope of the line:

Thus, the equation of the line is of the form:

We substitute one of the points and find b:

Finally, the equation is:

Answer:

Okay, so this is just a bunch of random information that's eying to trick you. The answer is in the question. "the telephone pole to a point on the ground 40 feet from its base."
Answer:
1. X > 8
2. a. X < 5
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 3x - 8 > 16
+8. +8
3x > 24
divide both sides by 3
x >8
2. 2x - 1 < 9
+1. +1
2x < 10
divide both sides by 2
x < 5
