Answer:

y-4 = -2(x+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope equation of a line is ...

y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

You have m = -2 and (h, k) = (-1, 4). Putting these numbers into the above form gives ...

y -4 = -2(x +1)

Can anyone help me I don't know how to solve this?

soldi70 [24.7K]

Set up a proportion. 6/10 = 9/x. cross multiply so x times 6 = 6x. And 10 times 9 = 90. so 6x=90. Then 90 and 6x divided by 6. which gets you x=15. The 9 ft tall elephant will cast a 15 ft shadow.

The store that is larger sells shirts at a better price because they have greater supply in comparison to the demand of shirts. The price is $2.99 because the larger store offers a discount of 10%.
