Answer:

m =(Y²-y¹)÷(x²-x¹)

= (-12 -8 )÷(3-1)

= (-12 -8 )÷(3+1 )

= -20/4

= 5

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the slope formula to find the slope

m = ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=(-12 -8)/(3 - -1)

=(-12-8)/(3+1)

= -20/4

= -5

Y+2 = -3(x – 4) Complete the missing value in the solution to the equation. (?, -2)

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The missing value in the solution to

the equation will be:

$x=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation

$y+2\:=-3\left(x\:-\:4\right)$

As the value of y = -2 is given.

so substituting the value y = -2 in the equation to find the missing value

$\left(-2\right)+2\:=-3\left(x\:-\:4\right)$

switch the sides

$-3\left(x-4\right)=\left(-2\right)+2$

$\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(-a\right)=-a$

$-3\left(x-4\right)=-2+2$

$-3\left(x-4\right)=0$

$\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}-3$

$\frac{-3\left(x-4\right)}{-3}=\frac{0}{-3}$

$x-4=0$

$x=4$

Therefore, the missing value in the solution to

the equation will be:

$x=4$

At a pizza eating competition, Davonne ate four more than twice as many slices as the runner up. If Davonne ate 11 slices, then

Sauron [17]

Let's begin with x as the number of slices the runner up ate.
Davonne ate four more than twice
So the equation should look somewhat like this.
4+2x=11
2x=7
x=3.5
So the runner up ate 3.5 slices
Davonne ate four more than twice as many slices as the runner up. If Davonne ate 11 slices, then how many slices did the runner up eat?
