Hi there!
The greatest common factor of 40 and 24 is 8.
8 goes into 40 5 times:
8 goes into 24 3 times.
We can rewrite this expression for distribution using the amount of times 8 goes into both numbers:
8(5 + 3)
Using this, we get:
8(5) + 8(3) = 40 + 24.
<u>Answer:</u>
<u>y+1=-2(x-5)</u> - Point Slope Form
<u>y=-2x+9</u> - Slope Intercept Form
<u></u>
Step-by-step explanation:
We will be using point-slope formula, as attached in a picture below.
1) Plug in the slope -2 as "m" in point slope form, along with the two points, (5, -1)
<u>y+1=-2(x-5)</u>
2) Next, if you want to put the line into slope-intercept form, you will need to distribute -2 to x and -5:
y+1=-2x+10
3) Now, subtract 1 from both sides:
<u>y=-2x+9</u>
