Answer:

y - 6 = -7(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (6 - -1)/(-8 - -7) = (6 + 1)/(-8 + 7) = 7/-1 = -7

Point-slope form: y - 6 = -7(x - -8)

=> y - 6 = -7(x + 8)

A cleaning company charges x dollars per hour to clean floors and y dollars per hour to clean the rest of the house

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

(15,18)

Step-by-step explanation:

write two equations with the information provided.

2x + 3y = 84

x + 4y = 87

use the property of substitution to answer.

x + 4y = 87, x = 87 - 4y

2(87 - 4y) + 3y = 84

174 - 8y + 3y = 84

174 - 84 = 8y - 3y

90 = 5y

90/5 = y

y = 18

Add the value of Y to an original equation. Solve for X

2x + 3(18) = 84

2x + 54 = 84

2x = 84 - 54

2x = 30

x = 30/2

x = 15

Write an equivalent expression for 4(a+5)

Drupady [299]

$\huge \boxed{4a+20}$

We can do this using the distributive property, which states that $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ .

Distribute the $4$ to the $a$ and the $5$ . $4a+4(5)$

Multiply. $\displaystyle \boxed{4a+20}$
