you cannot get that answer.... when you divide. Put the number into a fraction first so, it makes it easier to see what you are doing. So,
.Now simplify the cross off the zero from the top and the bottom to get
. So,
will give you 0.83333333333...3.
Answer:
(y-(-3))=4(x-(-1))
Step-by-step explanation:
formula for point slope form is:
y-y1=m(x-x1)
just plug in numbers from the point (-1, -3) for x1 and y1. The slope 4, would plug into m.

Answer:
x = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
You solve a linear equation by putting the variable on one side of the equal sign and a constant on the other side. Here, variables and constants are on both sides of the equal sign, so you need to separate them.
The basic idea is that you add the opposite of any term you don't want. Whenever you perform any operation (like "add"), <em>you must do it to both sides of the equation</em>.
We observe that x-terms have coefficients of 10 and 9. We choose to add the opposite of 9x to both sides:
10 -9x -5 = 9x -9x +2
x -5 = 2 . . . . simplify
Now, we still have -5 on the left, where we don't want it. So, we add its opposite (+5) to both sides:
x -5 +5 = 2 +5
x = 7 . . . . simplify
The solution is x = 7.

<em>Additional comment</em>
If we were to end up with an x-coefficient other than 1, we would divide both sides of the equation by that coefficient. This will leave the x-term with a coefficient of 1.

Answer: y = -2x + 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Two lines are said to be perpendicular if the product of their slope = -1, that is , if 
is the slope of the first line and 
is the slope of the second line , if the two lines are perpendicular , then = -1
The equation of the line given :
y = 1/2x - 1
comparing with the equation of line in slope intercept form
y = mx + c , where m is the slope and c is the y - intercept , it implies that
= 1/2
Therefore :
= -2
To find the equation of the line with slope -2 and passes through the point ( 3 , 4 ) we will use the formula
= m (
)
y - 4 = -2 ( x - 3 )
y - 4 = -2x + 6
y = -2x + 6 + 4
y = -2x + 10
