Answer:

f = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Using (6,8) and (f,-7) then

m = (-7 - 8)/(f - 6) = 5

- 15 = 5(f - 6)

-15 = 5f - 30

5f = 30 - 15

5f = 15

f = 3

Which expression is equivalent to 30 (1/2x - 2) +40 (3/4y-4)? (will add pic)

bixtya [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

30( $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 2) + 40( $\frac{3}{4}$ y - 4)

Multiply each of the terms in the first parenthesis by 30 and multiply each of the terms in the second parenthesis by 40.

= 15x - 60 + 30y - 160

= 15x + 30y - 220 → C
