Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The way the equation is written in point-slope form is:

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

The way we write an equation in slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

We can change point-slope form to slope-intercept form by first distributing the m and then adding y1 to both sides of the equation. When we do this we will get:

$y=mx-(m*x+y1)$ where $(m*x+y1) = b$

which is now in slope intercept form.

What is the distance between 4-i and -2+3i?

stepan [7]

If you're working with complex numbers, then I'm sure you're comfortable with plotting them on a complex-plane ... real part of the number along the x-axis, and imaginary part of the number along the y-axis.

When you look at it that way, your two points are simply two points on the x-y plane:

   4 - i    ===> (4, -1)

   -2 + 3i ===> (-2, 3) .

The distance between them is

   D = √ (difference in 'x')² + (difference in 'y')²

   = √ (6)² + (4)²

   = √ (36 + 16)

   = √ (52)

   =    7.211 (rounded)

A clothing store has a going-out-of business sale. They are selling pants for $8.99 and shirts for $3.99. You can spend as much

astraxan [27]

Answer:

Let x represents the number of pants and y represents the number of shirts.

As per the statement:

Since, a clothing store are selling pants for $8.99 and shirts for $3.99

then;

total number of Pants cost is, $8.99x and total number of Shirt cost is, $3.99

Also, it is given that: You can spend as much as $60 and want to buy at least two pairs of pants.

then, we have the equation of inequality;
