Answer:

y = -5/4 x - 3 is the slope-intercept form

5x + 4y = -12 is the standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope form: $y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})$

$(x_{1}, y_{1})$ = (-4, 2)

y - 2 = -5/4(x + 4) Multiply by 4 to remove the fraction

4y - 8 = -5(x + 4)

4y - 8 = -5x - 20

4y = -5x - 12

y = -5/4 x - 3 is the slope-intercept form

5x + 4y = -12 is the standard form

Correct answer is the last one.
Function because for every x only one value of y,
not one-to-one because, 2 values of x have the same value of y.

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, write in simplest radical form.

$\text{Apply Pythagorean theorem,}\\\\~~~~~~~~\text{Hypotenuse}^2=\text{Base}^2 + \text{Perpendicular}^2\\\\\implies 9^2 = \text{Base}^2 + \left(2\sqrt{14} \right)^2\\\\\implies 81 = \text{Base}^2 + 56\\\\\implies \text{Base}^2 = 81-56\\\\\implies \text{Base}^2 = 25\\\\\implies \text{Base} = \sqrt{25}\\\\\implies \text{Base} = 5\\\\\text{The length of the third side is 5 units.}$

If 3x+54+(65 × 32)+ 902- (43/12) =y, then what is y?

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

We cannot solve without a value for x. The simplified form is $3x+\frac{36,389}{12} =y$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the equation is $3x+54+(65)(32)+902-\frac{43}{12}=y$ then we cannot solve it until we know the value of x. We can simplify it using order of operations such as PEMDAS.

$3x+54+(65)(32)+902-\frac{43}{12}=y \\3x+54+2,080+902-\frac{43}{12}=y \\3x+3,036-\frac{43}{12}=y \\3x+\frac{36,432}{12} -\frac{43}{12} =y\\3x+\frac{36,389}{12} =y$
