Write an equation of a line that passes through the point (-2, 4) and has a
slope of 5.

y = 5x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation consists of y = mx + b. The m is the slope, which we already know is 5.

To find the y-intercept, plug the coordinates into the equation so far, which is y = 5x + b.

y = 5x + b

4 = 5(-2) + b

4 = -10 + b

14 = b

So the equations is y = 5x + 14.

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
