y + 8 = 1/3 (x+6)

With the given information, we can use the point-slope formula, , to write the equation of the line. Substitute values for the  , , and  in the formula to do so.

The  represents the slope, so substitute  in its place. The  and  represent the x and y values of one point the line intersects, so substitute -6 for  and -8 for . This gives the following answer and equation (just make sure to convert the double negatives into positives:

<h3>2 Answers: B and D</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

Choice B is one answer because -2 and 2 are additive inverses that add to -2+2 = 0

Choice D is a similar story. We have -5+5 = 0

In general, if x is some number then -x is its additive inverse. So we can say x+(-x) = 0 or -x+x = 0. In short, additive inverses add to 0.

You are given a table in which each row represents the coordinates of points.  For example, in the first line, we have x=-7 and y=5.  Work through the four given equations, one at a time, subbing -7 for x and 5 for y; is the equation still true?  If yes, then you have found the correct answer.  B is the exception; I'd suggest you check out equations A, C and D first, before focusing on B.

Example:  D:  (5)-5 = 2((-7) + 7) leads to 0 = 0.  Is that true?  If so, D is likely the correct answer.

Find the value of B - A if the graph of Ax + By = 3 passes through the point (-7,2), and is parallel to the graph of x + 3y = -5
Gnoma [55]

The required simplified value of B - A = -6.

<h3>What is simplification?</h3>

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Since, line Ax + By = 3 and x + 3y = -5 are parallel than slope of both the line will be same,
m = -1/3 = -A/B
From above
A = B/3  - - - - -(1)


Now line Ax + By = 3 passed through the point (-7, 2). So,
-7A + 2B = 3
from equation 1
-7B/3 + 2B = 3
-B/3 = 3
B = -9
Now put B in equation 1
A = -9 / 3
A = -3

Here,
B - A = -9 + 3 = -6

Thus, the required simplified value of B - A = -6.

A population of rabbits triples every month.the population starts with two rabbits.how many rabbits are there after 3 month's
Tresset [83]
The answer would be 54. Because you start with 2.
2x3 = 6
6x3 = 18
18x3 = 54
Each month it triples so you continue
to add 3 to each result.
