Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the slope of the line for the two points.
Slope is Rise/Run.
For the two points (-8,-4) and (3,-10):
Rise (-10 - (-4)) = -6
Run (3 - ( -8)) = 11
The slope is Rise/Run or -(6/11)
The equation becomes y = -(6/11)x + b
Find b by entering either of the 2 points given. I'll use (3,-10):
y = -(6/11)x + b
-10 = -(6/11)(3) + b
b = -10 + (6/11)(3)
b = -10 +(18/11)
b = -(110/11) + (18/11)
b = -(92/11)
The equation becomes y = -(6/11)x - (92/11)

Answer:
8x + 13
Step-by-step explanation:
"Like terms" means the same kind of algebraic expression...the 6x and the 2x are "like terms" because they both have an x in them. The 9 and the 4 are both constants, which means they are plain numbers. So 6x and 2x is 8x .
9+4 is 13 just like elementary school.
So all together,
6x + 9 + 2x + 4
6x + 2x + 9 + 4
8x + 13
We can rearrange the terms because the problem has all addition in between the terms.
Answer:
simplify the equation to solve it, remove unnessecary parentheses and spaces.
