1. fourteen less than the product of 3 and a number is the sam
: 6 more than twice the number. what is the number?

3x - 14 = 6 + 2x

Add 14 to each side.

3x = 20 + 2x

Subtract 2x from each side

x = 20

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

a = (-2, 0)

b= (-4, 0)

c = (-5,2)

d = (-1,2)
