Answer:  y = -2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

We can calculate the slope from the two given points.  Slope is the change in y per the change in x, sometimes called the rise (y) over the run (x)

Rise is (-9 -3) = -12

Run is (4 - (-2)) = 6

Slope = Rise/Run = -12/6 = -2

The line is y = -2x + b

Find b by using either of the two known points (solutions).  I'll choose (-2,3) [because I like smaller numbers]

y = -2x + b

3 = -2*(-2) + b

b = -1  [That was only slightly easier than -9 = -2*(4) + b; b = -1]

The equation is y = -2x - 1

Answer:

y =5

Step-by-step explanation:

m=

−9−7

5−5

=

−16

0

=0

y=mx+b

5=(0)(7)+b

b=5

therefore y = 5

If f(x)=3x-1 and g(x)=x+2,find (f+g)(x)
KiRa [710]

Answer:

(f + g)(x) = 4x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) = 3x - 1 and g(x) = x + 2, find (f + g)(x):

We can rewrite (f + g)(x) as f(x) + g(x), and solve the composite functions through addition:

f(x) + g(x) = (3x - 1) + (x + 2)

Combine like terms:

f(x) + g(x) = 3x + x + 2 - 1 = 4x + 1

Therefore, (f + g)(x) = 4x + 1.

Please help!!! What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form? Write your answer using integers, proper fractions, and
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

y = x - 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Points on the graph: (0, -40) and (60,20)

Slope:

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

m=(20+40)/(60-0)

m=60/60

m = 1

Slope-Intercept

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y + 40 = 1(x -0)

y + 40 = x

y = x - 40
