Answer:
x =2
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+4) /3 = 2
Multiply each side by 3
(x+4) /3 *3= 2*3
x+4 = 6
Subtract 4
x+4-4 = 6-4
x =2
Answer:
-7
Step-by-step explanation:
(7/8)(-16)(-7)(-1/4)
(7/8)(-1/4)(-16)(-7)
(-1/16)(112)
-7
Answer: Choice A
y + 1 = -3(x+2)
=============================
Explanation:
Let's look through the answer choices.
Choices C and D show that the point (2,1) is on the line. But the graph does not show this. So we can rule out choices C and D.
With choice A, the slope is negative and choice B has a positive slope.
The answer must be choice A because the line is going downhill as we move from left to right.
--------------
A common method is to pick two points on the line and compute the slope using the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
Once you know the slope, you would use point slope form
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
