The slope of this function is -2
I believe the answer is 5. I multiplied 5 to -4 and that’s -20 and I’m guessing since slope-intercept form is y=Mx+b I’m thinking b=4 and the slope being 5 matches the output. -16=5(-4)+4
That would simplify to 32x^5+400x^4+200x^3+5000x^2+6250x+3125
You would do that because you have to write it repeatedly as (2x+5)(2x+5) and so on.
The answer is b
2^2*3*7=
4*3*7=
12*7=
84
The answer to the problem is
y=1/2x
