Solution:
<u>Step-1: Find the slope of the line.</u>
Formula of slope: y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁
- y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁ = Slope
- => -2 - (-5)/-8 - (-4) = Slope
- => -2 + 5/-8 + 4 = Slope
- => 3/-4 = Slope
<u>Step-2: Use the point slope formula to determine the slope.</u>
Point slope form formula: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
- y - y₁ = m(x - x₁) = Equation of line
- => y - (-5) = -3/4{x - (-4)} = Equation of line
- => y + 5 = -3/4{x + 4} = Equation of line
- => y + 5 = -3x/4 - 3 = Equation of line
- => y = -3x/4 - 8 = Equation of line
The equation of the line is <u>y = -3x/4 - 8.</u>
The answer is 48. 98 - 50 = 48 apples left :)
1- not a function; 3 in the domain is repeated
2- a function
3- a function
4- a function
Length: 2(x + 6); Width: 3.5x
A rectangle has 4 sides. 2 sides are lengths and 2 sides are widths.
The perimeter is the sum of the measures of all 4 sides.
perimeter = length + length + width + width
perimeter = 2(x + 6) + 2(x + 6) + 3.5x + 3.5x
Use the distributive property on 2(x + 6).
perimeter = 2x + 12 + 2x + 12 + 3.5x + 3.5x
Now let's group all terms with x first, then all the numbers.
perimeter = 2x + 2x + 3.5x + 3.5x + 12 + 12
Now we add like terms. Like terms have exactly the same variables and the same exponents. All terms with x are like terms and can be added together. All terms with no variable are like terms and can be added together.
perimeter = 11x + 24
11x and 24 are not like terms since 11x contains the variable x and 24 has no variable. Since 11x and 24 are not like terms, they cannot be added together. No more simplification can be done, and 11x + 24 is the answer.
Answer: 11x + 24
