The y-intercept of the graph of a line is (-2). the line also passes through the point (5, 1).

y = 3/5 x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line, calculate the slope using two points. With the slope and one point, substitute them into the point slope form and simplify as needed.

Use the points (5,1) and (0, -2) since -2 is the y-intercept.

Slope =

y - -2 = 3/5 (x - 0)

y + 2 = 3/5(x)

y = 3/5 x - 2

thats not a system of equations, that is a solution

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}
