You can answer this question by plugging the given values into point-slope form, which is y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1}). M will represent slope and x_{1} and y_{1} will represent the x and y coordinates.
y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1}) Substitute in the values
y - (-5) = 4 (m - 4) Cancel out the -(-5)
y + 5 = 4 (m - 4) Use the Distributive Property
y + 5 = 4m - 16 Subtract 5 from both sides
y = 4m - 21
Answer:
x=3,2
Step-by-step explanation:
Move all terms to the left side and set equal to zero. Then set each factor equal to zero.
Answer:
7/8 of a gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
First find a common denominator for each of the values, in this case eighths. Next, add the total water used for the tomatoes and peppers (you'll get 7/8 gallons). Then, convert the 2 and a half gallons to eighths, getting 20/8 of a gallon. Next, subtract the 7/8 from the 20/8; getting 13/8. Since you need to find the amount of water used for the lettuce, subtract the last value from 3/4 gallons (or 6/8)
